Gianni Versace presented his first signature collection in Milan in March 1978. In the following decade he won the L'Occhio d'Oro award in 1982, launched his first fragrances in 1984 and opened Atelier Versace in 1989.
The Barocco prints most associated with Versace appeared prominently in the early 1990s. Scarves from the 1980s show the house's printed silks before that period.
The long, narrow format gives the print a linear rhythm, reinforced by the red stripes. Some light marks are visible.
