"It is with big honour and emotion that my brother Santo and I present you Maurice B�jart, the choreographer that created this ballet to commemorate our brother; we all approach with a big emotion to this appointment of tomorrow night. For us Maurice is part of our family, and for this reason there was no better way to remember Gianni, to celebrate his life that was made of fashion, art, culture, humanity. B�jart is great, he's got a very generous heart, as the title of his ballet says 'Thank you Gianni with love'."

8. SOUNDBITE (Italian) Santo Versace:
"Gianni loved the theatre, it allowed him to express his creativity, but also forces you to respect some rules, because the bodies of the dancers must dance, and this forces you to work for the centuries and the future. It's a very interesting work that leaves you full creativity freedom, working with great artists".

MILAN SAYS 'THANK YOU, GIANNI, WITH LOVE'
Jessica Alba, Claudia Schiffer and Rupert Everett were among celebrities attending a ballet performance at La Scala in memory of Gianni Versace, the Italian designer murdered 10 years ago.
The ballet Sunday night was the highlight of a series of events marking the anniversary of Versace's death.
Called "Thank you, Gianni, with love," the ballet was written by choreographer Maurice B�jart, who enjoyed a long professional collaboration and close friendship with Versace. It featured stage costumes designed by Versace over the years, as well as some created for the occasion by his sister Donatella, who took over design at the fashion house upon his death.
Other celebrities attending the red-carpet event were Naomi Campbell, designer Karl Lagerfeld and French director Claude Lelouch. Donatella Versace showed up with her daughter, Allegra Beck Versace.
Versace was gunned down at age 50 outside his oceanfront mansion in Miami Beach, Florida, on July 15, 1997, by Andrew Cunanan, who killed himself a few days later.
Gianni started designing clothes when he was 22 years old when a local garment maker hired him to design a collection that was sold in his mother, Francesca Versace's, store.
