D&G's rich style tapestry for fall

Posted Jun 8, 2009

If it's a theatrical entrance you're after this autumn, look no further than the front seats of D&G's homage to the world of theatre. Capturing its richness, culture, and of course its social staus - Swide shows you how to look as if you always have seats in a private box.

Minimialism may be fine for the supermarket, but when you want to be noticed (and quite frankly who doesn't?) a show-stopping dress or a flash of a diva-like accessory is what you need to bring the house down. Swide takes a peek behind the stage curtains of next season's D&G's must-haves.

Fabrics and materials within the collection consist of rich brocades, smooth velvets, matelassé velvets, with the addition of a bit of sparkle - glitters and stones.

Tapestry-printed chiffon blouses offer the style impossible - sexiness with a cultural twist.

Platform boots and pumps in smooth or upholstery velvet , in suede or satin, encrusted with coloured and golden stones, in patent leather with contrasting piping, or in tapestry prints with black bows.

Opt for a a quirky & cultural twist with a printed silk jacket.

Trompe-l’oeil effect prints get a 2009 makeover creating statement pieces for any Fall wardrobe.

Tapestry print dresses are a new take on the little black dress. They can be worn both day and evening for a unique new look.


Rich colours such as black, burgundy, blue, melange grey, ochre, gold reflect the opulence of the theatre.



Voluminous chiffon shirts paired with tight leggings offer a new alternative evening look for the city girl.



Cocoon skirts in a varierty of rich silk fabrics reflect the theatre's show stopping costumes paired - paired with a winter coat they also offer a chic way to brave the winter chill.
