Whereas previous collections may have been designed with the Italian woman in mind, Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 2016 RTW Collection seemed poised for the foreign tourist who wanted to capture her own tiny piece of Italian culture. Over 20% of looks carried phrases on them, including Italia is Love, Bella Italia, Italia Forever and popular Italian spots, such as Portofino, Rome, and Pisa. Every once in awhile, a model rocked a Dolce & Gabbana shopping bag, looking simply gleeful with her purchase — this was a very interesting decision for the brand, perhaps to hint at the accessibility of these runway looks in an unabashed hope to drive sales.
Models literally walked down the runway with their iPhones in bedazzled Dolce & Gabbana cases and took selfies. The atmosphere was festive and the attire ranged the gamut from formalwear and beach cover-ups to sleeping ensembles and party dresses. There were so many options, which I was excited to see! In 91 looks, there was the signature D&G black lace bustier and high-waisted skirt, silk pajamas made as daywear, suiting with surprise sequin appliqués, mandarin collar tops, stripes and polka dots, reference to Mary Mother of Jesus, paint strokes on full dresses, and knitwear.
My favorite bits were the accessories: over-embellished sunglasses that rose far above the brow line, a vintage camera clutch, floral headphones, cigar box bags, and decorated straw baskets. Not the most fancy of Dolce & Gabbana accessories, but certainly the most fun! They each had this ‘found’ quality, very much like the special knick-knacks one might hope to find when shopping in tourist jaunts abroad.
The army of postcard dresses at the end summed the show up well, reminding the audience of the joy of discovery in travel, especially in a country as diverse as Italy. For all the stuffiness and seriousness that Fashion Month can bring, creative directors Domenico and Stefano wanted us to just live a little and enjoy the moment.
Her stretch denim jumpsuit features a spread collar, hidden front closure, elbow-length sleeves, chest flap pockets, front continental pockets, a fitted silhouette, belt loops, and legs that slightly flare at the knee.
Her blue fox fur key ring showcases a calf leather strap and a gold-tone brass clasp.
Hot!

When you think of Donatella’s Versace, you quickly think of sexy, sultry, and confident women in control of their worlds. Versace’s Spring 2016 RTW presentation gave front-row viewers and standing room fanatics a fair share of that plus some. The collection was classic to the brand, yet entirely anew in its utilitarian stance. Let’s get into these looks!
The inspiration was evidently combat and this ethos manifested itself in quite a few ways. First and most obvious, the color and pattern choices: canvas, dark green, and camouflage were dominant elements within most pieces that ranged from blazers and shorts to scarves and even a backpack. Another element was in the footwear: wide-strapped sandals were worn with the ferocity of sky-high stilettos. The models moved easily (dare I say, they looked comfortable!) and that ease is definitely a shift from Versace of recent past.
The thigh-high slits in curve-hugging dresses still made an appearance, but those looks were balanced by separates and cropped bandage tops one might choose to wear everyday. Supermodel Joan Smalls rocked an all-black outfit that consisted of a sportswear jacket, bandage top, and tied-at-the-waist skirt that I’m pretty confident Rihanna would wear straight off the runway. There were touches of the Versace logo on the shoes and accessories, but for the most part, the pieces were devoid of being over-the-top and full of wild wearability.
Donatella undoubtedly had major model star power on her runway; including, but not limited to: Raquel Zimmermann, Natasha Poly, Gigi Hadid, Liya Kebede, Joan Smalls, Binx Walton, Caroline Trentini, and Imaan Hammam to name a few. These women have shown boldness and persistence in making it to the top of an incredibly cutthroat industry. Donatella needed such an army to make sure her empowering message rang loud and clear.
