LONDON — London Fashion Week is getting an injection of Italian glamour, with Donatella Versace's Versus and Emporio Armani joining Britain-based designers on the show schedule Sunday.
The designs Versace presented included all the staples of her usual rock chick sexiness — tight bell bottom trousers, mesh mini dresses, studded and silver-fringed cowboy boots, and lots of black, white and red ensembles adorned with silver hardware.
Many outfits featured a check print, including tiny bikini bottoms emblazoned with the brand name on the back, worn with a matching cowboy jacket.
Later Sunday, Giorgio Armani is joining the Spring-Summer 2018 shows with a catwalk and party for his Emporio Armani collection to mark the opening of a flagship store in the British capital.
Preen and Topshop were among other designers with Sunday shows.
