Donatella Versace slammed the Italian government for what she described as anti-gay policies in a heartfelt and personal speech that referenced her late brother, Gianni Versace, while receiving a fashion award this weekend.
activists praised her for clearly challenging the government’s actions, but called on the entire fashion community to do more.
Besides blocking recognition of children of same-sex couples, Premier Giorgia Meloni’s right-wing government is pushing through legislation that, making it punishable with prison terms and stiff penalties. A 2004 law already banned surrogacy within Italy. “Donatella Versace’s declaration is important She made clear how this government is diminishing freedoms and rights for the LGBTQ community,’’ said Fabrizio Marrazzo, spokesman for the Gay Party and the referendum for egalitarian marriage. “We ask her to support us, in particular the campaign to make marriage for lesbians, gays and trans people the same as for everyone else.”
