Naomi Campbell Dresses Her Baby in a Rainbow Versace Onesie in Honor of the 24th Anniversary of the Fashion Designer’s Death

The supermodel announced the arrival of her first child in May writing on Instagram, “There is no greater love.”

Naomi Campbell and her baby commemorated the anniversary of her close friend and legendary fashion designer Gianni Versace’s death with a special onesie.

The new mom posted a faceless photo of her newborn daughter, whose name has not yet been revealed, to her Instagram Stories on Thursday showing the baby lying in her crib wearing a white onesie covered in rainbow-hued Versace Medusa-head logos. She wrote over the shot, “I love you Gianni Versace,” adding four doves and a red heart emoji. Thursday marked 24 years since the designer was assassinated by spree killer Andrew Cunanan outside his Miami mansion, Casa Casuarina, at the age of 50. Campbell regularly walked in Versace’s shows and served as the face of the brand, but her relationship with the designer extended well beyond the catwalk. The supermodel also posted a video montage of herself and Gianni at various runway show to her Instagram account on Thursday, writing in all caps, “I miss you Gianni Versace, your intuition and actions ahead of its time. Your work ethic to be admired and your authentic embrace generosity and beautiful heart adored. #RIP #24Years #NeverForgotten.”

In May, Campbell first shared the news that she’s now a mom by sharing a photo of her cradling her daughter’s little feet on Instagram. “A beautiful little blessing has chosen me to be her mother,” she wrote in the caption. “So honored to have this gentle soul in my life there are no words to describe the lifelong bond that I now share with you my angel. There is no greater love.” Shortly after the announcement, she returned to Instagram to thank her friends and family for all their gifts and kind words of support. “Never have I felt so much love like I have over these past few weeks, I am so thankful for the love that you’ve poured into my daughter and I,” she wrote.
