Gianni Versace began his career in fashion early, working in his mother’s dressmaking companyin Reggio. He moved to Milan in 1971, and in 1972 Versace designed his first collections for Genny (incubator of such talents as Christian Lacroix, Guy Paulin, and Giorgio Armani), Callaghan, and Complics. Versace struck out on his own in 1978, launching “Gianni Versace Donna.” In 1989 he opened “Versace Atelier,” a couture label. In 1989 he and his sister created “Versus,” a ready - to - wear diffusion line for younger clients. Versace created slender, sensual designs in bright and bold colors meant to shine a spotlight on the wearer.

House of Worth, the famous Victorian couturier house founded by Charles Frederic Worth considered to by some as the "father of couture", created this 1890's jet beaded capelet. This capelet is constructed of black silk velvet with a frilly, curly black silk ribbon ruff collar and is fully lined in what looks to be charcoal silk broadcloth. The standout of this piece is its jet beading throughout the capelet, which makes this a truly one of kind piece.
