To be out & about requires a wardrobe and for this no need to search far,
the total look is so D&G and you will have to be D&G. The fashion story
is simple, it should be more than a flashback and why not last longer than
summer. Get ready to share, laugh and enjoy; great memories are still to be
lived which not only should help us to go through the cold season but also
reminds us that old fashioned can be quite in fashion.
Ready to lie in the sun or cool down under a tree? Before you choose the
location, take notes for your look. Better to know how to dress first and where
to be seen after…
Matchy-match your environment, play a back-to-back with your best friend both in
vichy print light shirts. Want to stand out from the classic surroundings, and
make a playful statement? Hawaiian prints should do the trick and should give
you the edgy touch you need to be fifties but not boring. It is ok to be a bit
nostalgic and to fancy some details that recall past fashion fantasies but it is
a 2011 version here, right?
Innovative fabrics and techniques have been studied and used to provide
comfort and make sure that theses D&G unstructured jackets and light chino
bermudas are a summer second skin and not a protective
armour.
A bit chilly, could be, when the sun takes its leave, a soft and light jumper to wear over your shoulder is the answer.
Prints are talking so stay low key with the trousers: easy cut, easy shade, easy you go…
D&G is a go-to shopping destination for any man who needs a wardrobe seasonal update without any hassles. As always do not forget the key accessories on your picnic shopping list: raffia loafers and vichy messengers… for your next picnic you need a stylish pick!

DNA Coding: The Corset
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.
