Dolce&Gabbana have been lending their irreverent yet razor sharp aesthetic to the masculine and feminine play. For ss12 the tuxedo was a complying victim to the transformation.

The play between masculine and feminine is a long standing interest of Dolce&Gabbana. Early on, the designers began to investigate the allure of a woman dressed in traditionally masculine items. Since then, rigorously tailored ensembles, which in a way add emphasise to the woman’s forms, and not swamps them into androgyny, have become synonymous with Dolce&Gabbana to the same extent as the body con lingerie inspired dress.
Dolc&Gabbana have referenced traditional masculine tailoring in their womenswear collections almost as early as their first fashion show. But what is it about role reversal that has fascinated thinkers, artists and politicians for centuries?
Playing between masculine and feminine is an age-old game. For FW11, Dolce&Gabbana exemplifies the duality and adds a touch of irony, frivolity and novel approach to a centuries old phenomenon.
The beautiful Michelle Buswell features in Harper’s Bazaar Singapore and plays up to the masculine femininity of Dolce&Gabbana’s FW11 collection. Afterall… it is almost Halloween.

We thus begin the official countdown to FW12. Still undecided whether you will go for your totally masculine appeal, mix, vary, or relentlessly choose to be a woman? Here are some inspirational looks, just in case.
The mood of the collection, the trends to follow or to borrow. Two important elements intertwine, go hand in hand, or walk alone imbued by sensuality.
A star stuck combination, a playful and young mix and match, sequins, music notes, cuts and shiny brogues: a rocking party. Must-have.
It's not because of the chills we are getting in the old continent, it's just time to start talking about Fashion in the Fall, make some considerations, and decide which Dolce&Gabbana wardrobe to pick: after all we have two options. Either masculine or feminine.
A blend of femininity and masculinity, the result is a collection high in colours and precious in beads and sequins.
