[Pierre 10,480]

Last night, Donatella Versace joined Alina Cho at the Metropolitan Museum of Art to discuss fashion and the arts, as part of Cho’s series, “The Atelier With Alina Cho”. During the chat, the iconic designer hinted at her Met Ball frock, what it’s like to be the new face of Givenchy, and her friendship with Lady Gaga. The designer’s had a pretty great year, and she’s high hopes that 2015 will exceed all expectations. The night ended with a refreshing dose of advice for the next generation of designers in the room. Nothing is slowing Versace down anytime soon!

On dressing celebs for the red carpet: “Versace were the first ones to really start the red carpet. Now you don’t remember the movie but the dress. It’s very important the way they present themselves. I love women’s bodies and I want them to look their best.”

Her two BFF’s: “Lady Gaga is crazy and I love her, I want to know what she can bring into this world. She has an incredible brain Lady Gaga, and she’s so talented. Madonna is my most loyal friend for years; she’ll always be an icon.”

Advice to new designers: “Be ready to suffer! It wasn’t easy for my brother when he started. It wasn’t easy for me, you need to push yourself.When you make something good, ask is it good enough? Be daring. Do what influences you; look for what is not on the market. You know when something has potential.”

I suppose she meant that she wants to know what else Gaga can bring into this world. She's known Gaga all these years as shown by their appearances together. Heck, Gaga even came up with a song named after her name. She must at least know by now what and how much Gaga has brought into this world since breaking the glass ceiling, shouldn't she?
