Medusa '95 sofa

Medusa 95 is a modern reinterpretation of the House's signature Medusa, which first appeared in the Versace Spring-Summer 1995 collection. This version showcases the Medusa elevated among Grecian metal details and is featured across a wide range of homeware. The Medusa 95 sectional sofa is composed of generously proportioned elements, enhanced by an arrangement of cushions that appear randomly placed, supported by small roller cushions. Displayed as in the picture, sizes and configurations may vary.

Story

Milestones

1978

Gianni Versace founds the fashion house

Gianni Versace, born 1946 in Reggio Calabria, opens his first boutique on Via della Spiga in Milan and presents his debut collection at La Permanente in March. The original company, registered as Gianni Versace Donna, will grow into the global luxury house headquartered today at Piazza Luigi Einaudi 4, Milan.

1982

Move into housewares

Versace expands beyond fashion into jewellery, china and textiles for the home — the first foothold of what will later be formalised as Versace Home.

1988

The Greca (Greek Key) motif debuts

Gianni Versace introduces the Greek Key in the Fall-Winter 1988 ready-to-wear collection. Decades later, La Greca returns as a defining pattern across Versace Home upholstery and bed linen.

1989

Atelier Versace haute couture

The Atelier Versace haute couture line is launched, presented for the first time in Paris.

1992

Versace Home interiors launch

Versace becomes one of the first fashion houses to launch a dedicated home-interiors line — beginning with textiles and quickly expanding to porcelain tableware through a partnership with the German manufacturer Rosenthal that is still running today.

1994

Vanitas chair

The wooden Vanitas chair, the earliest dated piece in the Versace Home furniture canon, debuts. It will be re-upholstered in velvet and re-presented at Salone del Mobile 2025.

1997

Gianni Versace assassinated; Donatella becomes Creative Director

Gianni Versace is murdered outside his Miami Beach home, Casa Casuarina, on 15 July 1997. His sister Donatella Versace, who had been Vice President since 1978, becomes Creative Director — a role she will hold until 2025.

2014

Blackstone takes a minority stake

Blackstone purchases a 20% stake in Versace for €210 million — the brand's first non-family ownership.

2019

Capri Holdings acquires Versace

On 2 January 2019, Capri Holdings (the former Michael Kors group) closes its acquisition of Versace for approximately US$2.1 billion.

2020

Versace Home furniture licensed to Lifestyle Design Group

Versace signs a licence with Lifestyle Design Group — the Italian home-design division of US-based Haworth Group — for the production and distribution of Versace Home furniture. The licence covers furniture only; textiles and accessories remain in-house, ceramics continue under Rosenthal, and wallpaper and floor tiles stay with their respective licensees.

2023

Rosenthal × Versace turns 30

The Rosenthal × Versace partnership marks 30 years with a limited mug collection that revives a 1993 design — gold-toned Barocco motifs paired with a Medusa lid.

2024

"If These Walls Could Talk" at Palazzo Versace

Salone del Mobile installation at the brand's original Milan atelier on Via Gesù 12 debuts the Medusa '95 Conversation Sofa, La Greca Bed, Lady Desk, and Moon Island sofa and armchair.

2024

"If These Walls Could Talk" launch

The Medusa '95 sofa debuts as part of the Versace Home 2024 "If These Walls Could Talk" presentation at Palazzo Versace, Via Gesù 12, during Milan Design Week 2024. The family celebrates the iconic Versace Spring-Summer 1995 collection.

2025

Prada Group acquires Versace

Announced 10 April 2025 and closed 2 December 2025: Prada Group acquires Versace from Capri Holdings for €1.25 billion (~US$1.375 billion). The same year Donatella Versace steps down as Chief Creative Officer (effective 12 March) and becomes Chief Brand Ambassador (1 April); Dario Vitale is appointed Chief Creative Officer.

Inside

Construction

Sectional, large-proportion elements

"The Medusa '95 sectional sofa is composed by elements with a large proportion enriched by a play of cushions placed in an apparent random manner but supported by small roller cushions" (manufacturer's own copy). The sofa is sectional — pieces combine, not a single fixed silhouette.

Wooden frame, polyurethane + fibrefill + feather

Standard upholstered-sofa core: wooden frame padded with polyurethane, fibrefill and feather. The seat cushions repeat the same trio (feather + polyurethane + fibrefill) for a soft-but-supportive sit.

Cushion strategy — random + roller supports

The back-cushion arrangement is deliberately random: large, soft pads stacked apparently casually, supported underneath by small roller cushions. This is the design feature, not just upholstery — it's why the silhouette reads loose rather than upright.

Wengé-stained wooden feet

Wooden feet, finished in wengé stain — the sofa's only visible non-upholstered element. The dark register grounds the soft volumes above.

The "random" cushion arrangement

The "random" cushion arrangement

Detail of the back: large soft cushions stacked in apparently random positions, with small roller cushions tucked underneath. The arrangement is built into the construction — not a styling suggestion, but the published intent: "a play of cushions placed in an apparent random manner but supported by small roller cushions".

Configurator

Modules

Compact configuration

Compact configuration

341 × 114 × 66 H cm

The smallest of three published sectional configurations — 341 cm width, 114 cm depth. The single-bench register, sized for a generous lounge seating but not yet a wraparound.

Mid-size sectional

Mid-size sectional

270 × 256 × 66 H cm

A square-ish wraparound — 270 × 256 cm. Reads as an L-shape with the depth nearly matching the width; sized for an intimate room rather than a great-room.

Largest configuration

Largest configuration

598 × 309 × 66 H cm

The widest published configuration — almost 6 m × 3 m. Built for a great-room or villa-scale space; the random cushion arrangement comes into its own at this scale.

    Salone del Mobile 2024 — Conversation Sofa unveil

    Salone del Mobile 2024 (17–21 April 2024). The licensed manufacturer's editorial of 16 April 2024 frames the Medusa '95 Conversation Sofa as the standout piece in the Versace Home 2024 collection — the sectional sofa product page collects three configurations of this design.

    Versace unveils revival of the iconic Medusa sofa from 1995

    Interior Daily, 5 August 2024 — the trade press picked up the Medusa '95 sofa as a revival narrative four months after Milan, framing it explicitly as a return to the 1995 Versace Spring–Summer collection's Medusa motif.

FAQ

Frequently asked

Three sectional configurations: 341 × 114 × 66 H cm (compact), 270 × 256 × 66 H cm (square-ish wraparound) and 598 × 309 × 66 H cm (great-room scale). All share the same 66 cm seat-back height — the line scales by length, not by sit register.

Large-proportion sectional elements with a deliberate "random" cushion arrangement: large back cushions stacked loosely, supported underneath by small roller cushions. The looseness is the design — "a play of cushions placed in an apparent random manner but supported by small roller cushions" (manufacturer's wording).

Partly. The seat cover is non-removable (sealed onto the wooden-and-polyurethane frame). The back-cushion covers are removable — fabric or leather to spec. The roller-cushion supports follow the same removable-cover policy as the back.

Not this SKU. There is a separate Medusa '95 outdoor sofa product on the manufacturer's catalogue (different page, weather-resistant materials). This one — wengé-stained wooden feet, indoor upholstery — is for indoor only.

Versace Home does not publish a designer attribution. The earliest dated editorial we could verify is the manufacturer's own coverage of Milan Design Week / Salone del Mobile 2024 (17–21 April 2024) at Palazzo Versace, where the Medusa '95 Conversation Sofa is named as the standout. The trade press (Interior Daily, 5 August 2024) framed it as a revival of the 1995 Versace Spring–Summer Medusa motif.
