DOLCE & GABBANA
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana might have parted ways romantically, but they are growing old gracefully together. Compare the design duo in 1998 and 2001.
DONATELLA VERSACE
Back in 1993, Donatella Versace was a 30-something helping at hand at her brother Gianni's glamorous fashion shows. Now she's 56, and her hair is glossier than ever as she steers the family business on to the Milanese catwalks and beyond.
DIANE VON FURSTENBERG
There was no one better than the designer herself to show off the glamorous wrap dresses she created in the Seventies. Now aged 65 and counting, DvF hasn't lost any of that je ne sais quoi.

JOHN GALLIANO
John Galliano has adopted many guises during his design career (which came to a halt last year following an anti-Semitic rant in a Paris Café). From astronaut to bleached blonde dreadlocks, the image on the left shows Galliano in 1988.

ALBER ELBAZ
Lanvin creative director Alber Elbaz has got geek chic down to an art. The Moroccan-born designer's bespectacled look from 1998 has merely evolved into a more modern version for 2012.
