For FW10, Dolce & Gabbana took a return flight to Sicily, revisiting the origins of the brand with a black and white portrait of Sicily. Exploring the Sicilian aristocracy in all it's elegance - classic eveningwear and the tuxedo suit was transported into the future with the assistance of next season's must-have fabric - quilted silk.
Ensuring the past is brought firmly into the future, Dolce & Gabbana's FW10 quilted silk pants are tailored and finished with a chic tuxedo stripe. Quilted tuxedo evening jackets are offered in a range of deep petrol blues and clarets as well as the classic black & white creating an aristocratic richness with a very modern quirky glamour. Their added advantage is that whatever the occasion - day or night, they can be styled in either a casual or elegant way.
This new quilted range offers a reinvention of the iconic tuxedo combined importantly with a useful comfort factor - and quite frankly who wouldn't want a bit of aristocratic comfort from time to time?
