Amore e Bellezza

In a new garden theme interpreted in a grassy tinsel dress, lawn slides, and literal flowerbeds turned into top, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana’s fashions continued in the Italophile vein of amore e bellezza, which they express in their 1950s and 60s silhouettes of black lace dresses, subversive floral prints, brocade and jacquard tailoring, and all the flounces and religious embellishment their vast fan base could dream of.

The show, which took place on a June Sunday afternoon at Metropol, to announce Spring/Summer 2019, had a highly diverse cast of models and celebrities like Monica Bellucci, Helena Christensen, Eva Herzigova, and Isabella Rossellini and her family. It seemed to receive actress Camila Banus greenlight too, when Loot & Riot showed her some heel boots from the collection and she said “These are fire! Oh, my God. These are delicious… I would have to be only in Dolce and Gabbana, and specifically this collection, when wearing these. They are pieces of art.”
