MILAN, March 3, 2001 – A moss-covered stone water fountain, flowery arches
and floors strewn with autumn leaves left no doubt:
Romance was in the air at Dolce & Gabbana. But
needless to say, the Italian duo's idea of gracious
country life is far from sedate.
From a wooden farmhouse emerged glamorous desert
bohemians clad in extra-long hip-hugging,
double-belted distressed leather pants, billowy
striped tops and dangling fox tails. The vintage
feeling continued with fitted corduroy trousers and
oversize blazers, flea-market suede and fur jackets,
and tattered blue jeans. Dolce and Gabbana clearly had
a blast mixing the old and the new; slouchy pants and
oversize hobo sweaters and scarves alternated with
sheer floral camisoles, sharp military coats with
multiple diamanté buckles, Wild West fringed bags and
tall prairie boots. In a nutshell: anything and
everything a sensible girl could possibly need.
