Each painting has a vintage Versace silk tie attached to the front. It's wrapped around and attached with glue after the gallery-wrapped canvas has been painted in corresponding acrylic colors. Gianni Versace was murdered in 1997 and each tie is pre-death which means he had a hand in the design.
Each color has to match and each line and shape from the tie has to line up on the canvas before the tie is glued on. The canvas and tie become one work.
The Versace label is removed from the back of the tie and is attached to the back of the painting for authenticity.
