Walk the Walk: Dolce & Gabbana S/S 2015 Collection

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana presented their 30th anniversary collection during Milan Fashion Week today, and it brought back a lot of old classics to life with a new twist.

Spanish culture, especially the Spanish brand of Catholicism, was the major influence in this collection. Votive hearts and roses were elements that tied all the pieces together. This was also the first time the designers introduced the ponchos, and they fit very well with the aesthetic of the Dolce & Gabbana women. Accessories, especially the shoes, were totally breathtaking with the amazing embellishment details. Of course, the torero inspired finale ended the runway show on a very high note! Truly spectacular!

Watching this show was like a retrospective for this fashion house. To name a few signatures of this fashion house, there were the famous polka dots print, the carnations, the hour glass silhouettes, the crowns, and the puppet prints (which all showed up on the runway). Maybe the designers should consider producing more dolls (that were in the show), and have an exhibition with them wearing the iconic looks from different seasons.


Pros:
- The collection has a very solid theme: roses, votive hearts, and Spanish cultural influence
- The details in this collection are absolutely breathtaking.
- The prints are nice. I especially love the roses and polka dots one.
- The accessories, especially the shoes, are beautiful. Couture materials.
- Love the fringe element on the ponchos and dresses.
- As always, the finale is powerful!

Eye Candies: 
- All the pieces with embellished 3D hearts (votive hearts)
- The shoes
- The Dolce & Gabbana dolls
- Black mesh dress with roses print and 3D heart
- Black sheer embroidery roses skirt
