Versace’s annual La Vacanza capsule collection returns with a lineup of showstopping summer dresses that marry Mediterranean glamour with the house’s legendary codes. Infused with the signature energy of oceanic mythology, the collection invites women to step into summer with bold sensuality and elegance. From seashell motifs to the unmistakable Safety Pin hardware, each piece is a statement in movement and silhouette, cut for sun-drenched escapes and moonlit soirées.
The Underwater Barocco Draped Flared Mini-Dress (AED 7,800) channels the mystique of the sea with coral and starfish motifs, a flared silhouette, and a dramatic shoulder Safety Pin. The Safety Pin Draped Mini-Dress (AED 11,950) offers a sleeker, more architectural form, accentuated by silver pin detailing—a high-summer homage to the brand’s edgy legacy. For something softer yet equally striking, the Underwater Barocco Slip Mini Dress (AED 8,250) captivates with a draped cowl neckline and Medusa ‘95 hardware, making it the perfect dress for dreamy coastal evenings. Finally, the Safety Pin Ribbed Knit Draped Gown (AED 4,550) combines sensual minimalism with figure-hugging finesse, ideal for longer holiday nights where understated drama is key.
La Vacanza isn’t just a celebration of style—it’s a gesture of care. This season, Versace adopted 9,000 coral fragments in Bora Bora to support Coral Gardeners’ reef restoration efforts. Shoppers throughout June 2025 were invited to name and track their very own baby coral, bringing a personal touch to environmental impact and sustainability. With these dresses, you’re not just dressing up—you’re dressing with purpose.
The La Vacanza 2025 capsule exemplifies Versace’s mastery in transforming beachside ease into high-fashion allure. Liquid jersey fabrics drape like a second skin, subtly catching the light with every movement—perfect for transitioning from a sunlit terrace to an evening fête. Details like Medusa hardware and sculptural cuts elevate each look, allowing wearers to embody the sensual power and feminine boldness that defines the house of Versace. Whether it’s the understated elegance of a ribbed gown or the bold graphic energy of the Barocco print, each piece is designed to be unforgettable.
Beyond the wardrobe, La Vacanza is a full sensory experience—imbued with heritage, purpose, and a reverence for nature. With its coral restoration initiative and elevated craftsmanship, the collection reflects Versace’s evolving narrative of conscious luxury. From the shores of Bora Bora to the streets of Capri, the 2025 edit captures the essence of modern escapism: glamorous, grounded, and always in motion.
