Laces!

When I saw this dress from the Dolce and Gabbana spring/summer 2010 show I immediately thought of the shoe-booties from Christian Louboutin. Laces are a good old trend that season after season find its way back to the runways. I think it's quite hard to wear laces without going totally in to a amish/grandmother mood. But these two fashion items are just lovely. 

Sometimes Dolce et Gabbana are just spot on

Usually I find Dolce et Gabbana a bit boring and I can't really understand how they can get so popular. But then again when they pull something of like they did in their show for fall 2006, I really understand why people adore them so much. I think that Napoleon's Josephine would have been proud and bought it all. It was clear to see that she had been one of the biggest inspirations to that collection. 

There are just some collections that you remember because of their greatness. And this is truly one of them. 

Glove hats

Dolce et Gabbana... Sometimes great, sometimes not so great. I would say that their fall 2009 collection had both good and bad moments. The gloves on the models heads was a bit odd, but still a bit cool. Not so wearable, but what ever.  That is not an issue when it comes to high fashion. It might should be an issue because of the times we are living in financial. The glove theme reminded me about the old Parisian fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli. But Milan is always very glamours, and with the huge dresses at the end, the Dolce show was no exception, with prints of Marilyn Monroe. 

Dresses I want

Usually I think DolceGabbana is a bit trivial. Always the same sexy dresses that look great on girls like Victoria Beckham or Jennifer Lopez. But then came along the spring/summer 2008 collection and my opinion about DolceGabbana change completely. The collection was really beautiful. It wasn't the typical Milan show, it was very Parisan. The climax was at the end with five outstanding dresses, all draped and hand painted. Once I saw one of them in Vogue, and the price was 'to order', so I don't think it will be in this lifetime I will get my hands on one of those dresses.
