>> INSIDER WIRE —More details about Riccardo Tisci's surprise — and perhaps eyebrow-raising — appearance at the Versace menswear show and Donatella Versace's private after party this past weekend. He was in Como to visit his mother and then stayed an extra day to attend the Versace events because he and Donatella go way back — she and Gianni are part of the reason he got into fashion: "Donatella for us is like a Sophia Loren. She’s a great representative of Italy. It’s a friendship.” [WWD]
