Getting Ready With

Ruby Lyn Found Her Ideal Prom Dress, BFF Lila Moss & A Free Blanket At Versace

Just another Friday night in Milan.

by Kevin LeBlanc

In the ever-snarky world of fashion, community is crucial to staying sane and surviving the 16-hour days of runway shows and late-night parties. Ruby Lyn and Versace are well on their way to being a trusty pair. The must-follow Canadian fashionista was in Milan for fashion week and hit up Gucci, Prada, and of course, Versace, where the team looked out for her and the other guests with complimentary blankets for the frigid night of the show. They also looked out for her with an extra-special look from the Spring/Summer 2025 runway, which Ruby says she’ll be using as inspiration for her ‘fits this year.

In true Versace form, the runway was a family affair, with Ruby spotting her best friend and supermodel Lila Moss on the runway, plus catching a glimpse of fashion’s unofficial mother, Donatella. She took us from her plush hotel room all the way to the train station where Versace staged their show, and also gave us a glimpse at her favorite looks, including one she wishes she got to wear to prom. Keep reading to dive into the gilded world of Versace, as Ruby saw it.

I was sooo excited to get to wear a look from last season’s collection, it was one of my favorite shows I’ve ever attended. I remember I couldn’t put my phone down, it was too good.

I had so much fun at the fitting mixing different looks together. We decided to lean into the self-expression that Versace exudes and clash colors and patterns. I usually don’t feel as confident in more feminine looks, but leave it to Donatella to make you feel amazing whilst out of your comfort zone.

Absolutely loved the contrast of colors, texture, and print in my look!! There was a ‘60s mod western flare going on (I definitely took notes to bring back with me to use in my own wardrobe).

And we're off to the show!! (I was nervous I was going to trip & fall in these heels, but luckily I was able to spare the photographers that image.)

🖤 Unapologetically Versace 🖤 Donatella brought strict and sensual to the runway with studs, dramatic ballerina silhouettes, and metal mesh. I loved the balance of elegance and edge with silk and leather contrast.

This headpiece. This is the kind of armor I need.

One of my fav looks from the show. (I wish I could’ve worn this dress to prom; it’s so girly and fun but still spunky. I love!)
