A fish out of water

Posted Jul 16, 2009

The new faces of Dolce & Gabbana's underwear campaign are the Italian swim team, and we couldn't help but ask them how a Saturday afternoon at a catwalk show compares, to well, the swimming pool.

Attending a catwalk show is surreal for even for the most hardened fashionista, but for someone not in the habit of sipping champagne and the flashes of the paparazzi at 10:30am on a Saturday morning, the experience can be, well...odd.

Swide caught up with Olympic swimmer Nicola Cassio backstage at the spring/summer 2010 Dolce & Gabbana menswear show to ask him his thoughts on his first fashion show.

For more on the campaign - see our interview with Nicola direct from the shooting of the advertising campaign www.swide.com/lNicola-Cassio--Interview-with-the-Olympic-swimmer
