The Florida Commissioner of Education manages the day-to-day operation of the department. The office of Commission of Education was originally a Cabinet-level position filled by direct election and directly responsible for education in Florida. The 1998 Florida Constitution Revision Commission submitted a revision to the Florida Constitution, amending Article IV, Section IV to reduced the Cabinet from six elected officials to three. The voters approved the changes and it became effective January 7, 2003; after this time, the Commissioner of Education became an appointed position and the FLDOE became the overall responsibility of the Governor. The revised constitution also created a new Florida Board of Education with seven members (one of whom is the Commissioner of Education), appointed by the Governor to oversee the Department of Education.

It has been six years since the death of a genius designer Gianni Versace. His name has long been a symbol of provocation and shock, and the model of his clothing – a vivid example of the infinity of the human imagination. His fashion empire retained its greatness and influence, even after the assassination of the Emperor

Experimenter

In contrast to his no less famous compatriot and rival, Giorgio Armani, Gianni Versace, has always been unmatched by the experimenter. He destroyed the seemingly immutable laws: combined in one outfit red, green and blue colors, stripes, and cells, fur, satin, lace, and leather. At the same time it creates clothing does not look clumsy and tasteless.

With its subtle instinct and exquisite taste Versace incorporate elements of different artistic movements – antiquity and Renaissance decadence and Futurism. If Armani is considered a true art of fashion, then Versace never tired of repeating that the fashion for him – just fun. Armani created a strict but at the same time loose clothing for business, Versace became famous as a master of dresses for parties and night clubs, elegant social events and bohemian entertainment. His imprudent statement that the Armani suits of decent people, and he, Versace, whores still remember at every opportunity. However, Gianni Versace has never embarrassed himself in provocative terms. Who else but him, the creator of the boldest outfits in fashion history, to know the laws and rules of art outrageous? But here he was right – many beautiful and wealthy women are willing to pay well for outfits in which they would like the Italian prostitutes.

Gianni Versace has always sought not so much to dress, how to undress a woman, make her the center of attention. In his model set too tight and too short, stridently, magnificent dresses, which could be mirrored knitted mesh, decorated with crystals or lightning fasten with decorative pins. Wearing a dress by Versace, the woman instantly transformed: it becomes aggressive and sexual, confident and self irresistibility.

The female body has always been for him the subject of sensitivity inspiration. To some extent, Versace copied his mother, Francesca Versace, dressmaker, famous throughout the Reggio-Calabria there, a small town in southern Italy, where he was born and raised. Since early childhood, Versace, day after day watched as Frances carefully wrapped nude female body in black velvet, pin up pins, folds, considering each line of the body. "I have realized how important it is to work directly with the body to see how it falls on the fabric as it is combined with the lines of the figure. Perhaps this is the true vocation Couturier> – Gianni Versace says in an interview many years later. In the meantime, he unconsciously imitating the mother, draws pyshnotelye silhouettes of the then Italian sex symbol Gina Lollobrigida and Sophia Loren, dressed them in garments of unprecedented luxury.

In fact, his whole life was spent in the wardrobe, filled with ready-made dresses and numerous patterns. Little Gianni loved mysteriously-sexual atmosphere of her mother's studio, where he could watch, fascinated, looking at beautiful women, trying on dresses. Future Versace was already predetermined. Who else could be the small, fragile, with anyone and do not make friends with the boy is too high-pitched voice and delicate manners, from childhood idolized woman's body and eventually vozvedshy him to the rank of fetish? Only a fashion designer with the usual for this profession homosexual tendencies, it embodies the dreams of its beautiful. Perhaps its fate would be different, to lay down his trust relationship with his mother. But Frances was ashamed of him over the years, all evident in sexual orientation. Her favorite was the eldest son of Santo. Perhaps all that was done by Gianni Versace, throughout his later life, was intended to attract her attention (psychoanalysts there is something to think about). With Gianni's mother had not made friends, but to conquer the most beautiful and wealthy women in the world he managed. Not with their enchantments, and her clothes.

In 1962, eighteen-Gianni Versace plunged into fashion design. He was aware of all the fashion victim, attended screenings of clothes in Paris, London, Florence and Rome. An attempt to continue their education and complete architectural college ended collapse – Gianni did not see myself anywhere but in the fashion world. <Childhood> <Youth> and <Universities> Versace were in my mother's atelier, where he gradually became her right hand. Along the way, he continued to embody their fantasies on paper, creating costumes, fanciful one another, and examples of their thoughts on celebrities. Ambition soon materialized. Milan businessman Enzo Nicosia, heard about the exceptional talent Gianni, invited him to develop collections of clothing for her shop. He just had to put the name of a young designer at the clothing produced as a guarantee of quality and originality. In place of Versace could be any other aspiring fashion designer, in Italy, these always had in abundance. But fate would have it once and for all his favorite of his is. In the early 70's, inspired by the success of his first collection, Versace is <a freelance artist>, carrying out orders of factories and individuals. His first client was the renowned dazzling beauty Raffaella Metachena, Miss Italy 1966. Then it drew the attention of renowned Italian fashion house Genny, Callaghan and Complice, offered to work on them.

Showman

But Gianni Versace was too original, too extravagant and too proud to work for someone else. He always wanted to work only on myself. Start-up capital has found his older brother, Santo, a graduate of the Faculty of Business, University of Messina, who has completed several years in the bank Sredito Italiano. Economic education has helped him to properly orient the situation and invest in real estate Milan, will soon have skyrocketed in price. In 1976, Gianni and Santo firmly settled in Milan. Work on developing the first collection under the brand Gianni Versace lasted almost two years. It was preceded by noisy advertising campaign. In March 1978, in the audience, the press, critics and competitors was presented the first women's collection. Such lush hits Italy has not yet seen. No designer had never gathered at the podium so many bright colors and charming women. Sitting in the front rows wore dark glasses to protect eyes from the blinding light, which literally sparkled outfits. Gianni Versace did not spare money for luxury and beauty and no mistake. Since then he has always his inner intuition, which he never failed, guessed the precise point at which the kick was turned into a tasteless and shows – in window dressing. Shows collections from Versace turned into a real spectacle with props, music, professional actors and musicians. He is remembered about him talking.

GCAP Versace fashion world appeared term <supermodel>, and the names of Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington, who began the so-called, remain on hearing so far. Without it, they would have remained just a mannequin. Versache, always erected beautiful women in the rank of the cult, was ready to pay any money for it to collect the best catwalk models on the catwalk of the world and clothe them in their clothes. For this he was ready to fulfill any of their caprice.

Deceiver and spender

But do not stop, if you're applauding spectators and competitors envious sigh. Gianni understood it better than anyone. He began to actively promote the brand, and he did it as original as sewed clothes. By running in the production of an exclusive line of dishes,
he sent a few boxes with her actor Sylvester Stallone. A similar gift was and Claudia Schiffer. In response to such care and attention Stallone and Schiffer with pleasure and almost free of charge posed naked for magazines, covering only square meal of Versace – the case was unprecedented in the careers of both.

Making the world of dreams a reality, Versace bought houses and villas, and writing an intricately decorating them. Around the world, still standing, these luxurious pieces of architectural art, outside the beauty that rivals Buckingham Palace or Versailles, and the inside more like museums antiques. In parallel, he continued to create new collections.In the list of his regular customers were listed did not whores, but a very respectable and respected women – Jane Fonda, Madonna, Kim Bessindzher, Sharon Stone, Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Diana. Feel dressed in clothes from Versace, and rock stars – Tina Turner, Michael Jackson, Elton John, The Prince, Jon Bon Jovi, Rod Stuart, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Michael George.

In 1987, Gianni Versace was at the peak of glory. He succeeded in all directions: his clothes were known to the whole world ballets by Maurice Bejart <Leda and the Swan> in <La Scala> and Souvenir de Leningrad. For this he was awarded the prize theatrical Maschera d'Argento (<Silver Mask>). The most avant-garde dresses from Versace tried on ladies of all races and nationalities, starring in the famous clip of George Michael I Want Your Sex. Needless to say, regular collection of home Versace, intended for sale, again became a sensation in the fashion world.

Another direction of its activities was the publication of luxurious books on fashion history, with wonderful pictures of the best picture and quote from the Versace, perfectly illustrating his life credo is: <I like men who have the courage to be a hero or q Pants can also be worn with a sense of style >.

Gianni Versace loved beautiful things, and they in turn loved him. He never denied themselves nothing. Couturier, lived and worked in the magnificent three-story palazzo in Milan, where his private apartments, studios, library and many rooms filled with works of art. Owners of antique shops were mad about him, knowing that if Versace crossed their threshold, it can simply keep on hand a handsome sum. At Versace, prayed and real estate agents. In 1992, he was almost $ 3 million bought the hotel <Amsterdam Palace> on the main street of Miami Ocean Drive, and a $ 3.7 million – a neighboring hotel <Revere>, who ordered demolished and in its place a garden with a swimming pool. Restructuring <Amsterdam Palace> by Versace personally supervised, took two and a half years and also resulted in an astronomical sum. The walls of the dining room are covered with a mosaic of pebbles in the Byzantine style. The ceiling of one room is painted a coined Versace scarf of leopard skins. One room is made in the Gothic style, the other – in Moorish. Purling water, splashing fountains in countless, decorated with mosaics, Greek and Roman statues, sculptures in the Baroque style and the furniture from the Versache – here the maestro chose to relax and achieve inner balance after countless hits. Cranes in a personal fashion designer bathroom made of pure gold. Everywhere – Picasso, Modigliani, Dufy and medieval masters. And take a five-story bank building at the prestigious London Bond Street, bought Versace in 1992 and turned into a marble palace, where even the toilets are made of superdorogogo Italian marble. At an average cost of an evening dress in the $ 6 thousand of course he could afford and did not like this:

Versace's extravagance was comparable only to his wealth. Financial turn his home in 1996 amounted to nearly 1.3 trillion. lire. (Over $ 843 million). And even at that time Versace impressed everyone with his capacity for work, creating several collections a year, continuing to work with theater <La Scala>, making costumes for movies and promoting his stamp on crooked and scrupulously apply to the stranger American market. At 90 he paid huge fees mannequin plus 50% for participation in rehearsals, which did not allow himself to anyone else.

Mystery murder

Gianni Versace was one of the lucky few who managed to realize their wildest fantasies. He knew how to live in his pleasure, spending time in expensive clubs and extravagant companies. But his talent, fame and wealth did not protect him from death. Versace has always flouted the own safety, never used the services of bodyguards. One hot morning of July 15, 1997 in Miami Beach thundered two shots, had sundered the life of fashion at the moment when he was all alone back to his luxury villa Casa Casuarina.Identity of the murderer was installed immediately: Andrew Kyunenen, serial killer, homosexual, in the past – one of the lovers, Gianni Versace, and now – a drug addict with a record and a complete psychopath.

Pro motifs murder of Gianni Versace in his time did not write just lazy. There was no shortage, and all sorts of investigative journalism. Not everybody agrees on the police version that this was the revenge of the rejected lover. Although all came one by one just perfect. Andrew Kyunenen was mentally unstable young man, in his spare time, traded in drugs and their own bodies. He was obsessed with movies with Tom Cruise and wanted to kidnap him, to make fun of her heart's content. And he hated Gianni Versace for what he achieved what he, Andrew, never dreamed of – fame, wealth, prosperity.

At the time of the murder Versace Kyunenen was listed among the ten most dangerous criminals in the U.S.. Despite this, he freely, neither of whom openly, roamed the streets of Miami. At the same time the FBI had information that Kyunenen located in Florida, and shortly before the murder Versace issued a set of posters with his picture and identifying the main signs. But it did not help. Once on the pickup <Chevrolet>, which escaped the killer, and the image with a fixed TV camera <News Cafe>, which in turn came a murderer and his victim, his identity was established in Miami started hunt for man. Five hundred FBI agents and many police officers combed the Miami literally every house. Were blocked all roads leading out of town and the peninsula. But Andrew Kyunenen not going to hide from them. He shot himself on board a yacht moored near the site of the crime, from the same gun that killed Versace. Suicide note when it was not there.

The case of the murder of world famous fashion designer has been closed. The police lying on the surface version of the murder out of jealousy. During the investigation carried out by, among other things, in record time, it became clear that Andrew Kyunenen long not just selling drugs, but also actively uses them. It is possible that he is addicted to them on the rich parties in the period when was friends with Versace. For what reasons they had a break, nobody knows. But the outcome was already predetermined. Drugs and the insanely jealous done their work, and Andrew began to take revenge on all those who succeeded in what he had dreamed all his life. His first four victims were wealthy prosperous people – a millionaire Norman Blachford, a young ambitious architect David Medson, a former Marine officer Jeff Trail, 75-year-old millionaire Lee Miglin. With each of them, Andrew was in a homosexual relationship. The latter two were killed with extreme cruelty – Jeff Trail got a lot of hammering in the face and head, and with the elderly Lee Miglin, Andrew dealt in the best tradition of Hollywood thrillers, causing several strong blows to the head, and then tried to decapitate with garden saw. It is incomprehensible how after such heinous crimes, as announced in the all-American wanted list, he quietly touring the country. But after the murder of Versace, it figured in less than a week.

But the mystery began almost immediately after discovering lifel
ess body murderer. The policemen who besieged the house where Andrew hid Kyunenen not heard the shot, which casts doubt on the story of suicide. Next. According to investigators, the offender shot himself in the face, which was virtually demolished shot. Identification cards held fingerprint and somehow took a full 10 hours. Investigators refused to clarify whether similar relationships were Andrew Kyunenena with Gianni Versace. Maybe this a real family Versace. But there are other versions of the murder of fashion designer who, despite his consistency, most likely will remain version, because the criminal case has long closed.

According to one of them, Gianni Versace was not killed by a former lover, drugged drugs and jealousy, and a professional killer, which hired n'drangetta – the most ruthless division of the Italian mafia which controls southern Italy.In n'drangette all bound by ties of consanguinity, it is the private mafia clan, not only in Italy but also, perhaps, throughout Europe, with an enormous arsenal of weapons, in which there is even a recoilless artillery and missiles <ground-air>. Gianni Versace, being a native of Calabria, was well acquainted with the customs n'drangetty. Yet dared to challenge it, declaring war it controlled underground factories who has made fake products with its world famous brand – the head of Medusa. Loss of Versace from the activities of these factories every year amounted to hundreds of millions of dollars, and the turnover of firms twins realizing counterfeit products, almost twice the turnover of the house Versace. In 90-ies of Gianni Versace was the most counterfeited fashion designer in the world. And he declared war on the pirates fashion business, cooperate with the Italian financial police. As a result, its activities n'drangetta in 1996, suffered considerable damage, losing counterfeit goods worth over 20 billion lire, and three factories, specializing in counterfeiting goods from Versace. What's wrong motive for the murder of a crooked fashion designer? " People who knew Gianni Versace, claim that shortly before the murder, he received some strange signals. First, in the courtyard of his villa planted a wounded bird, then – a dead dog. In the language of the Mafia, this meant mortal danger. Versace Why did not heed warnings not got the protection, remains a mystery. But in light of the above version of the contract killing looks quite logical. Andrew Kyunenen could well be an ideal candidate for <coasters>.

Second Life

Despite the fact that the successor Gianni began his brother Santo and sister Donatella, the huge Italian inheritance tax and the economic crisis in Asia, which housed a large number of boutiques Versace, made him always a thriving home to the brink of bankruptcy. Critics and financial analysts confidently predicted the disintegration of the empire Versace. There was even spread a rumor of a mystical effect of the logo at home – the sinister head of Medusa – for the fate of those dresses from Versace. But the empire was revived. Now it is headed by Donatella Versace. She had helped her brother, organizing campaigns and demonstrations, then started to design accessories and children's clothing. Shortly before his death, Gianni Versace gave her the address of the new youth line Versus, which poured its trickle of the overall multi-million dollar turnover company Versace. Developing design of its regular collection, Gianni often listened to her opinion. With a great sense of humor, he often joked that he trusted Donatella more than himself, because he is a bad man is that women like.

But the charge of the affairs of the whole house was more complicated. Donatella immediately rushed into battle, showing his first collection after only three months after the death of Gianni, which took a rather skeptical. After three years of trial and error, she succeeded with a collection of spring-summer 2000, striking bright pink and green colors and an incredibly light and tight dresses. Jennifer Lopez appeared at the award ceremony <Grammy> in the green dress with an incredibly deep neckline of this collection, created a furor. In the future, Donatella Versace opted for more feminine and less aggressive in their sexual expressiveness of the model. Perhaps it was this, rather than blind imitation design of his late brother, she has won respect among fellow designers and returned home Versace its former greatness. Now under the direction of Donatella are 40 stylists, developed 17 lines of clothing, operates about 300 boutiques and 3000 retail outlets worldwide.

Responsibility for the creation of Gianni and respect for the memory of her brother forced Donatello to forget about the fact that it is not only a talented artist, but simply a woman whose own family. Donatella has almost twenty years married to a former male model Paul Beck. They have two children – son of Daniel and his daughter Allegra, who, according to the will of Gianni Versace, inherited a large part of his condition. Recently, Donatella Versace is going to pay more attention to the family and therefore seeking a designer, able to support the traditions of the house Versace and become her successor as chief artist.Maybe this is the only correct solution, which she could take, after she was saved from bankruptcy by the finest house in the history of the fashion world. Almost she could repeat the success of inimitable Gianni, and whether you want to do this? Versace actually made impossible. Or almost impossible. Fashion world is cruel: a few months after collection show, she usually loses its commercial value. Clothing, presented in it, becomes part of history, ends up in museums and at collectors. Since Gianni Versace products are quite different. Many of his get prepared for a long life. Take sverhekstravagantnoe <dress> actress Elizabeth Hurley, in fact constitutes two cutting matter, connected with a garland of safety pins. <Entering the world> in such an outfit, she immediately joined the bohemian, attracted the attention of Hugh Grant and eventually held as the highest-paid actress and model. And remember the famous jacket, Elton John, studded with multicolored sequins that has become as much a part of its image as bizarre spectacles. Versace was and remains the only fashion designer, whose collections of writing scientific papers and defend the thesis around which still break spears art historians and critics of the fashion world. His fashions have become not just a phenomenon in the fashion world, but a true piece of high art, a vibrant cultural phenomenon and an eloquent example of translating into reality the most daring ideas.
