The Versace Fall 2018 Ready-to-Wear collection debuted in Millan and among the sleek brown leather trench coats and the belted dress design was a "baroque '90s-style logo tee and an artfully rumpled printed skirt with a high slit," which was worn by Jennifer Lopez as she announced her new single with Yandel and Abraham Mateo on Instagram. The outfit was made stylistically perfect with the addition of an enormous gold buckle belt and fringed vibrant yellow earrings.
The Versace Fall 2018 presentation was in itself a mix of 80s throwbacks. While the fashion-forward trench coats arose sophistication and admiration, the vibrantly patterned dresses with occasional fringe elements were reminiscent of Latino culture and brought about a whimsically element to the high fashion Ready-to-Wear collection.
