The snake-entwined head of Medusa (the misunderstood Greek deity whose crime was thinking herself lovelier than Athena) is iconic in the world fashion thanks to Gianni Versace. When asked about his choice to use this universally-hated symbol as inspiration for the Versace logo in a 1996 interview, Gianni explained that Medusa represented seduction -- a dangerous attraction.

I don't really get this trend although I did like the sunglasses with rhinestones on the side.

Poor Medusa, not only was she royally screwed in life but now she is stuck on some tacky chains for goofy rich folks who will buy anything? Girl just can't get a break can she?

The bag and the t-shirt were really neat, but I don't like any of the other stuff. :/

I like Medusa but I wouldn't wear anything some stupid designer made with her on it.
