Take a walk on the old side
Posted Oct 27, 2008
After close inspection, we’re not exactly sure how much effort these gym bunnies are actually putting into the whole experience but it’s good to know we’re not the first to be concerned about the body beautiful. The gym-wear on the other hand is elegance personified. Not only is it chic but also a clever time saving exercise. With fitness centres a scarce commodity, we're sure that by the time these gym bunnies arrived at their fitness destination of choice, there simply wasn't the time to change aswell. We’re especially fond of the man who appears to be quite at home with his boots off, experiencing what looks like an enjoyable foot workout. We’re on the phone to our gym now to see if one can be installed. It could be the perfect way to tone up our tootsies for the new season's heels.
We’re big fans of preserving dignity when we work out, velour pink and nylon are certainly not in our gym bags (check out GYM from Dolce&Gabbana to prove our point), but what we do like is invention of some sort. Nike and Apple's latest release to ensure the ipod Nano is compatible with selected gym equipment has ensured our legwarmers are ready and waiting.
Continuing with their successful partnership, the companies are working with health clubs 24-Hour Fitness and Virgin to enable direct access for the iPod Nano into gym equipment and is scheduled to be in five hundred gyms right now.

At 27, Dolce&Gabbana have achieved an impressive status, client base and cult following. The brand’s capacity to take the artistic traditions and aesthetic of Italy and make them their own is unsurpassable and highly romantic to fashion lovers. Their idiosyncratic designs, ironic take on classic dress and the brand’s emblematic items have all contributed in making Dolce&Gabbana a household name. For this instalment of our archive lead considerations of what makes up the Dolce&Gabbana DNA we concentrate on maybe one of the strongest statement the designers have made over the years: the corset.
When I was a child, my parents used to take me to a little village, where we would have almond “granita” and collect fresh water form a little drinking fountain, afterwards. This little place is called Scopello and it was time for me to return to my childhood and explore as an adult.
The scenario is…you are only in London for 24hrs. This doesn’t have to mean being stuck in your hotel wanting but not knowing what to do. Enlightened travellers continually ask the question - What would a Londoner do? Have no fear Luxury London is here…
There’s no need to go far afield to exotic locations to find adventure. In recent years adventures have been rediscovering urban winders right on our very doorsteps. Urban Exploration, known also as Urbex or UE, is an (often illegal) activity that explores unseen or unknown sights in the urban environment.
It appears that Ivan Olita’s scouting has led him straight to New York City’s very own scout, a movie location scout to be exact. Nick Carr’s job means that he gets to explore every nook and cranny that NYC has to offer, allowing him to discover the hidden details that many wouldn’t see. Ivan Investigates…
Whilst collaborating with Swide for The Matt Silk Collection SS12 video, Luca Finotti gave us the chance to get him in front of the camera for an exclusive interview. Whether it’s talking about his love affair with the camera, his views on what ‘ugly is’ or how he keeps himself sane, the up and coming fashion director was as natural in front of the camera as he is behind it.
The Cannes Film Festival is the epitome of European high glamour on the French Riviera. Sun, surf and…suits. Swide catches three stars who put their best foot forward in Dolce&Gabbana. Gerard Butler, Mathew McConaughey and Zac Efron got suited up to face the onslaught of press photographers that infest every event at Cannes.
Kylie Minogue has had a very very good week indeed. Sparkling brighter than ever at the Cannes Film Festival premier of ‘Holy Motors’, wearing Dolce&Gabbana, and then causing explosive reaction throughout the internet when her new single and video ‘Timebomb’ was dropped today.
