The Versace Fall 2009 collection color palette was concentrated around metallics—silver, gunmetal, dark gray, and midnight blue—and the palest neutrals. Super-skinny cargo pants, and the odd biker jacket appeared for day, and surprisingly no bling, no gold, no logos in sight.

For evening wear, Versace debuted dress after dress, long and flowey or short and covered in plastic paillettes. My favorites were the navy blue silk wrap dress and the similar, longer black version, because both are wearable and beautiful. The wrap dress is flattering on most female figures, which brings up another interesting point about this versace show - a couple of the models are curvier (Carmen Kass, Coco Rocha, Isabeli Fontana, and the newly [slightly more] curvy Lily Donaldson). And in a good way, they filled out the dresses for a change.
