Versace, Moss and Campbell were once ‘dangerous’

-

DONATELLA Versace says she and her friends Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss were “dangerous” party girls in the 90s.

The 61-year-old designer is great pals with the two supermodel­s and she admits they lived life to the full when they were all starting out in the fashion business.

Versace (pictured above) admits those times were “a lot of fun” but she eventually made the decision to leave the late nights behind her to live a quieter life.

Whilst being interviewe­d on stage at the Teatro Piccolo Studio in Milan, Italy, last week to promote new book ‘Donatella Versace’ published by Rizzoli, Versace was asked: “You, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss were known as the ‘dangerous trio’. Tell us about them...”

To which the designer replied: “We were really dangerous. During that time, in the 1990s, you were allowed to do everything, there were no limits. Or at least we used to think so. We did everything you could imagine. Parties, events, it was a lot of fun at that time, but then at a certain point I started thinking about my life. I wondered, ‘What am I doing? What’s my future?’ “

Quizzed on what made her stop partying so much, Versace - who has daughter Allegra, 30, and son Daniel, 26, with ex-husband, model Paul Beck, whom she divorced in 2000 - said: “Around 2005, 2006. I did it for my children. They didn’t tell me anything, but I looked them in the face and I told myself, ‘I have to change for them.’” — BANG Showbiz
