Inspiration: D&G's Odd Couple, 1999

This late 90's ad campaign for Dolce & Gabbana's D&G line surely evokes more cool than the precise cinematic homages the label has been presenting as of late.

Masterpiece Runway at Carven, Dries and Dolce



Dolce and Gabanna

The Fall/Winter shows are coming to a close and, like Ms. Jolie with a multi-cultural newborn, we have been frothing at the mouth with desire at some of the displays from the masters. 

We are hawk-eyed when it comes to fashion and so were quick to spot a very interesting trend; the painting. 

Ultra baroque in design, Dolce and Gabanna spearheaded this look in Milan. Ornate flowers and blushing cherubs adorned full skirted dresses and sweaters, whilst Carven heralded the Renaissance painters with the most beautiful a-line mini skirt. Dries Van Noten tackled the look in a different way by referencing Japanese iconography. 

This is one trend we can get on board with, paintings are boring on a wall; bring them to life on your body.

Fringe Benefits: D & G, Yohji & Mugler

Get into the swing of things in a festive haute-fringed number, one of this season's most playful micro-trends.

Take note of this Thierry Mugler patent fringed western vest's clean lines, here that restraint plays beautifully against the overall over-the-top sex appeal brought on by the pieces sculpted bust.

Best of Milan Fall 2010

Some of our top collections from Milan for Fall 2010 that are sure to inspire Vnyc's future buys:

Jil Sander

Quiet austerity combined with some of next fall's must haves from bike shorts to sculpted suiting, Raf Simon's had another winner on his hands for Fall 2010.

Pucci

Forget about the cheap tricks of Balmain today and take a look at Peter Dundas' alternative vision for the super-luxe girl on the town, if anything, he has quickly catapulted Pucci as the label to turn to for party-girls in the know the world over.

Dolce & Gabanna

Just like their powerful S/S 2010 collection, D&G took a smart look back at their tried-&-true romantic signatures with a collection that was quietly stunning.

Missoni

Angela Missoni thankfully left behind her recent inclinations centered around combing the house's signature zig-zag knits with cluttered Victoriana for a more layered and practical take on the house's graphic legacy.

Dolce & Gabbana Sheer Black Guipure Lace Skirt

Take a look at this sensational yet classic DOLCE & GABBANA black guipure lace high-waisted straight skirt that reminds us so much of the great Prada lace we saw for Fall 2008. This skirt is made of soft black tulle with 3-d floral lace appliqués and is smartly unlined so you can layer more with it. Think of adding a printed under layer or one with an explosive color-way. It could be great as a beach cover-up, or worn over a bright neon slip. It's sleek shape helps give lace a modern update and offers you something that's sexy, yet luxurious & refined.
