Milan Fashion Week, Fall 2008: Dolce & Gabbana

The Dolce & Gabbana uomi have ditched sex appeal and embraced a more covered-up countryside style.

Choice materials are rustic: plaid, tweed, a patchwork scarf print, and corduroy. Even the ball gowns had a Little Orphan Annie appeal — they were matte and muted. But there were some luxe elements — furs, sexy jeans, fun lace-up shoes, and silk scarves worn around necks. I'm not loving the new skirt silhouette of Fall — below the knee — but at least these designers offset it with tight knit sweaters on top. Lastly, there is an overarching British sensibility. I think these Italian designers should stick to what they do best: la dolce vita.

    It's very Ralph meets Dsquared2 meets Westwood. I kinda loved it!

    Yeah, you guys are right. Those animals would be totally cool about being skinned alive if they could see what beautiful pieces their furs were made into... you know, if only they were still alive. Oh well, let's all go shopping.

    hmm, i think this line looks pretty good. i read that the hemline thing is really just all over - it can be wherever you want it to be! i guess d&g just chose the hard-to-wear below the knee look. at least, it's hard for me since i'm petite.

    I don't like it all.
    The materials, the colors combination... some overall looks are very unflattering, even on the models, just imagine it on a "not-a-model" girl with a few extra pounds = a disaster!

    I especially hate the too short pants with those thick wool socks and "old man" shoes!
    Anti-feminine. anti-"hot">>>>>That is anti- D&G!
