    RIP Gianni. Who knows what designs he would have created and not only in couture. Such a terrible tragedy. Still such a terrible loss.
  • The cemetery in San Diego where Cunanan is interred next to his mother is located in a neighborhood of very modest houses far from the glamor and high life that he longed for. My heart goes out to the families who lost loved ones in this tragedy.

    Gianni was a fashion genius who really knew how to dress women. I still find his shows the most entertaining and memorable. Rest in peace, legend.
  • It's weird realizing that was over 25 years ago. To my memory it seems like 10 years ago. Wow, how time flies as we get older. Even before the internet, that was BIG news.
  • Not sure what's scarier....the lack of a clear motive, or how he could blend in virtually anywhere.. Must've really drove law enforcement nuts...
  • @matty6848
    I remember this happening. Can’t believe it was 1997 I was 18 years old. How time flies😱
  • It still seems kind of vague (based on the facts presented here) how one goes from being “beautiful, young and popular” to becoming a spree killer because you age? In any case, such a tragic story for all families of the victims.

    The summer holiday 1997 was filled with tragic deaths : first the death of Versace and shortly after that Lady Di . We lost two icons of the 90's
  • @yannisstath
    its impressive how the police can piece together what happens at a crime scene
  • I watched a mini series about this man, his life and the people who he murdered. He was absolutely not 100% all there that's for sure.
  • @marfu1119
    1997 was a horrible year alot of people got murdered. I was just 8 years old at the time and I remember that year.
  • he became what he wanted to be the most wanted man pathetic RIP GIANNI.
  • I remember when this happened & being glued to the TV and watching it on the news I was 22 then wow I feel old 😳😂
  • @brians7901
    I heard he killed him because Gianni And him hooked up one night and he thought he was gonna have it made but then Versace didn't wanna be his sugar daddy. He was angry and felt rejected

    after that happened a friend of mine got versaces house........he was into cell phones when they came out,ended up selling that company for about 375 million dollars,then he got into the hotel business which he is still in,he has 2 billion dollars worth of hotels....lets put it this way.....6 of the hotels in times square are his but he didnt keep the versace house too long,he said he had too many visitors always around so he sold that.
