Jewellery is by far the most popular and well-received gift for Valentine’s Day. Women love those shimmery, glittery trinkets, as they make them feel loved, special and treasured. ]]> Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:44:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/dolcegabbana-jewellery/2012/2/10 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/dolcegabbana-jewellery/2012/2/10
No Spring Summer Collection could be complete without sunglasses. For SS12, Dolce&Gabbana have revisited one of their most iconic stylistic tools and applied it to eyewear: Mix & Match. ]]> Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:37:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/dolcegabbana-sunglasses/2012/2/10 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/dolcegabbana-sunglasses/2012/2/10
Dolce & Gabbana are masters in creating iconic objects of desire which transcend trends and even decades: the corset dress, the masculine look, the embroidered cocktail dress and the Miss Sicily hand bag, to name but a few. To that list is it safe to say that we can add this summer’s must have accessory: the Dolce Bag. ]]> Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:02:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/special-must-have-dolce-bag/2012/2/9 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/special-must-have-dolce-bag/2012/2/9

Dolce&Gabbana menswear is famed for tailoring and denim. The causal portions of their collections are as memorable and desirable as the sartorial elements. ]]> Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:32:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/denim-as-a-starting-point/2012/2/8 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/denim-as-a-starting-point/2012/2/8
Sartorial excellence has long been a value which Dolce&Gabbana strive to provide to their clients. Highly skilled tailors, a string sartorial tradition, the finest fabrics and attention to detail usually found in the made to measure realm set Dolce&Gabbana tailoring apart from many other fashion houses. ]]> Tue, 07 Feb 2012 17:33:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/made-in-italy/2012/2/7 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/made-in-italy/2012/2/7
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. ]]> Mon, 06 Feb 2012 18:23:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/masculine-attraction/2012/2/6 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/masculine-attraction/2012/2/6
Granted, Valentine’s Day tends to be a bigger deal for women than men, however, why not spoil your other half with some fashionable gifts that say: “ I love you and I know what looks good!” ]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2012 17:30:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/valentines-gift-guide-for-him/2012/2/3 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/valentines-gift-guide-for-him/2012/2/3
Something borrowed, something new, something "not" blue. An eye for what's ahead or what's already going speed forward, never forgetting the importance of a formal suit and tailoring. Are you caught in the net? ]]> Thu, 02 Feb 2012 20:01:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/must-have-ss12-menswear/2012/2/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/must-have-ss12-menswear/2012/2/2
If you could distil the D&G SS12 Womenswear show what essence would you get? Foulards. These traditional, sometimes oldy-worldly accessories have been totally reinvented by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana and have become sexy and relevant once again. ]]> Thu, 02 Feb 2012 19:54:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/must-have-dg-sfilata/2012/2/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/must-have-dg-sfilata/2012/2/2
D&G, Milan. No fashion statement could have been clearer than this one: you need a foulard. Not around your head or neck: we are talking fashion, we are talking fabric.

Valentine’s day is without fail a holiday that means a lot to women. Even though its important to show her you love her and how much you care everyday, on Valentine’s day a special effort is required. ]]> Thu, 02 Feb 2012 17:06:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/valentines-gifts-for-her/2012/2/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/valentines-gifts-for-her/2012/2/2

The Dolce&Gabbana ss12 fashion show was a real visual feast; beautiful prints, macramé, bejewelled eveningwear and a vast choice of exquisitely crafted bodysuits. The Swide team have selected the key looks from the collection just for you. ]]> Thu, 02 Feb 2012 12:09:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/video-must-have-dg/2012/2/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/video-must-have-dg/2012/2/2

Soft, luxurious, sexy and risqué, leather is a favourite amongst designers and clients. For SS12 leather has seen a true resurgence.

The world which revolves around the office is changing, and with that so is the dress code. With offices becoming increasingly less “stuffy” environments, office wear is adapting. Dolce&Gabbana have a fantastic understanding of what the young professionals want to wear, both at work and at play. ]]> Wed, 25 Jan 2012 18:40:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/contemporary-tailoring/2012/1/25 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/Style/Must-Have/contemporary-tailoring/2012/1/25
Getting a transition wardrobe right is tricky. Bright colours are hard to pull off because we still have that green-ish tinge of winter.
