THE SHOW at Oi Fashion Rocks Brasil in Rio de Jan­eiro—the first to be held in a Latin Ameri­can coun­try—was Ver­sace’s, which had Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs per­form at the Jockey Club. The first night saw not just Combs and Dona­tella Versace, but Mariah Carey, Isabeli Fon­tana and Marc Jacobs present among the 5,000 crowd. On the red carpet, we also spot­ted Ja Rule, CBF (Brazil­ian foot­ball con­federation) presi­dent Ricardo Teixeira, Estelle, Fernanda Lima and Wanessa. As to the collec­tion, it was glamour and sensual­ity with long gowns, while the mens­wear was modelled, as Versace admit­ted to in an inter­view, by shirtless models. Combs performed ‘Bad Boy’, ‘I’m Coming out’ and ‘I’ll Be Mis­sing You’, sampl­ing ‘Every Breath You Take’ by the Police. Proceeds from the event go to the NGO Rio Solidário. •
