The amazing Fashion Duo took a further step in showing their bond to the Italian roots and the passion about the Sicilian Culture, they revealed homage to their
Catholic roots. It’s well known that Dolce&Gabbana always have
the element of “Love” in its every
work. But this time Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabban preferred to make the “Real Love” more visible.
Real Love… The Love for God!
Real Love… The Love for God!
On the 12 of January, the first Dolce&Gabbana Runway Show of the year took place in Metropol, Milano, during the Milano Moda Uomo.
Presenting their F/W13-14 Mens
Collection, Dolce&Gabbana,
rocked the Runway, once again with Sicilian people chosen from the
streets of Sicily by Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana themselves. People, brought
together from different occupations and with different sizes and proportions,
once again performed a brisk runway show.
The collection has a concept of “best clothes” that people prefer
to wear at their visit to Church on Sundays. The “best clothes”, some pinned with
nostalgic amulet-sequin, that are tailored by women for their husbands, by
mothers for their children, using the most special fabrics kept in the
chests. In respect to the inspiration, Devotion, Sicilians on the Runway with the diversity
in fabrics and cuts of the pieces, were look like the people of society, form
the wealthy landowner to the farmer, from the governor to the schoolboy, coming
together in the Church. At the final of the Runway Show, Sicilan Boys wearing tees with Madonna prints and Men in balck suits, couloured with silk brocade scarfs, closed the runway under the harmonious sound of ringing bells, that completes the concept of the Show and the Collection.
The song chosen for the Runway show was the Nina Rota's La Strada (The Road), from the OST of the Fellini's movie with the same name, which was the film that won the inaugural Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. This choice also seems intentional to show the respect and the pride of the Designers to the Italian Culture.
The most significant thing about Dolce&Gabbana collections, especially the latest ones, is being thematic, iconic and identifiable. Every single piece has something to tell us about the inspirations of the genius designers. Besides being highly iconic, they are also timeless masterpieces that worth to took their places in wardrobes every season.
As the Devotion is the inspiration of the collection, Maddona prints
and other religious designs embellishes
the over-sized tees and sweats.
Jeweled tops, white shirts with lace details, wide-sleeve tees, floral prints, velvets and cashmeres, black suits, lace dinner jackets and jackets with needlepoint floral decorations not only mesmerized the audience but also showed the flawless combination of designing and the tailoring skills of the Fashion Duo.
Tapered, relaxed trousers are also showing the collections devotion to tailoring and cut. On the Runway, almost every look was completed with matching shoes made from patent leather, washed suede and velvet. Needlepoint decorations on the shoes are also another eye-catching element of the collection.

It is that time of
the year! The September! January in Fashion!
The busiest time for
the world of fashion!
When Milano Moda
Donna starts every season, Dolce&Gabbana shows are being waited with
excitement as the genius fashion duo Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana know well how to amaze us not only with their talent and creativity by
creating better and more better collections every season but also with
reflecting all the inspiration to the runway, like telling a story.
The Intermezzo form the famous Cavalleria Rusticana is one of the most significant elements
of their shows. When you take your sit and get ready for the Dolce&Gabbana Fashion Show, you are first mesmerized with the impressive melody of
Intermezzo and conditioned to watch something spectacular. Intermezzo, for
sure, should be chosen intentionally as the Cavalleria Rusticana tells us a
story of which setting is Sicilia.
It was same on the
September 23rd!
Intermezzo was heard
at Metropol in Milan and Dolce&Gabbana Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion
Show started.
The music chosen and
mixed for the Runway were Meraviglioso (means “Wonderful” in Italian) by
Domenico Modugno and Vivire In Italia (mean “Living in Italy”) by Nino Monorni.
First one was telling how the life is beautiful and how many gifts are given to
mankind and the second one, without lyrics; give us the joy of Italy. Both were
so harmonious with the inspiration of the collection: Italy, Sicily and its
colorful culture. The army of models at the finale, walked with one of the most
famous Italian songs: Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu (Volare) that also let the
audience to feel the Italian Culture at its best.
The prickly pear
cactuses were used to decorate the runway and the venue. This was also very
thematic as the prickly pears are one of the most iconic and recognizable
plants of the Mediterranean and there are plenty of them in Sicily.
And the collection!
The one and only
word that can be used to summarize all is the “Meraviglioso”!
Dolce&Gabbana Spring/Summer 2013 collection is a great reflection of the Sicilian
Culture. From the fabric chosen to the prints applied, the collection is a time
travel that takes us to a journey from the ancient times of pottery to the
Italian Renaissance and also visits the joyful post-war abundance periods.
Raffia, organza,
rough cotton, linen and brocade were used both in their most pure phase and
also with very well created prints and embroideries. Prints inspired from the
Pupi (traditional Sicilian Puppets), local barrows and peculiar wheels and
Moorish Head vases are varied with strips in a very brilliant way to remind the
sunny and salty Mediterranean beaches. Dresses and corset made out of straws
also are also very innovative and stirring. Coral embroideries are also one of
the most elegant elements of the collection.
Concept chosen for the Collection, which was well applied to the house’s Spring/Summer 2013 Menswear Collection is mainly based on the natural state and ease of the Mediterranean Culture yet it is very well flourished and processed to create masterpieces that are referring to streets but not in a shoddy way. With the artistic touch of the fashion duo, the values that are belong to the streets interpreted to bring out a candescent collection.
Styling and fittings
were also prosperous at the show. Instead of sorting the looks with the
materials and colors used, models demonstrated the collection in a well-blended
order that brought out an extra vivid show.
The main elements
like Pupi and barrow prints are also used at the Spring/Summer 2013 Menswear Collection of the Dolce&Gabbana. This also makes both collections more
adorable that can be results with harmonious couple looks, which makes the
collection more recognizable.
Dolce&Gabbana started to warm up the spirits for the spring and the summer from now,
and again took everyone to an Italian Tale that brings all the beauties of the
wonderful island of Sicily into light.

Prickly Pears of Sicilia warmed up Milano! Dolce&Gabbana SS13 Men's Fashion Show
On June 23, the first day of Milano Moda Uomo, Dolce&Gabbana rocked
the city with the SS13 Men's Fashion Show.
The main inspirations of the collection are simplicity and
natural beauty. As Domenico Dolce & Stefano
Gabbana influenced and inspired from the cultural opulence of
the Sicily, they put too many characteristics of the island together to create
a collection that is full of comfortable yet tidy looks.
The inspiration of the collection is beyond objects or
eras. It is “the culture” itself. That’s because from the fabrics chosen
to the forms and prints, the collection is a revised interpretation of the
Sicilian Culture.
Stripes, and the high wasited cropped trousers are the most
remarkable elements of the collection that reflects the devotion of the
Sicilian Culture to the seas. Comfortable and loose forms also used in a very
refined way in order to create easy-to-wear, not exaggerated at all yet chic
pieces. Colorful Pupi (traditional puppets) prints and thick stripes heated the
collection while referring to the vivid side of the Sicilian Culture. The looks
are completed mostly with very well designed sandals that are already became
objects of desire.
Dolce&Gabbana Fashion Shows are always exceptional as
they are beyond demonstrations of collections but literally "show".
Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana always amaze the audience
with their genius.
As the inspiration of the collection was the culture itself,
Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana, to show their
appreciation to the people that create the culture, preferred real people from
the streets instead of professional models. 75 authentic Sicilian from
different occupations, chosen by the fashion duo, rocked the runway and exposed
the inspiration of the collection in the best possible way. The diversity of
the heights, ages and the proportions of the models incredibly increased the
vivacity of the show while live traditional Sicilian music added joy.
From the collection to the show, Dolce&Gabbana gave
a very impressive start to the Spring/Summer 2013 season and Domenico
Dolce & Stefano Gabbana proved once more that
they deserve to be distinguished.
