“Donatella and I, probably more than any other year that I’ve been here, she was interested in working closely together to build this look,” Sprouse said.
He continued, “I think Versace, especially with the theme of this Met being sort of the gilded age of America, that nouveau riche when all the sudden there was a brand new influx of cash and new money and people choosing this opulence … for opulence’s sake, just in terms of representation, I was like, ‘Oh, Versace is the perfect association for this. Absolutely.’”
