Dolce & Gabbana
Dolce & Gabbana likes to take a theme and run with it, exploring every avenue to get the season's message across loud and clear. For spring/summer 2012, the theme was the Net – or to be precise, net or mesh effects, worked every which way for a cool and, literally, breezy collection.
The look: Mesh attack
Silhouette: Relaxed and unstructured
Key items: The suit is always a key item for this label, and it gets updated with new proportions for spring/summer 2012 through new lengths and rescaled lapel details. The main message is for mesh and its variations, worked as layered tees, Bermuda shorts, cagoules with cotton panel details, boiler suits, unstructured mesh leather jackets, sweaters and fisherman tops, sometimes worked over a matching solid underlayer, sometimes worn as a see-through item. Variations on the theme include soft peg-top rolled-hem pant shapes and crisp whits shirts
Colour: A concise colour palette of of summer darks with rich burgundy, deep bottle, espresso, tones of grey, and graphic black and white
Fabric & knit: The crux of the collection revolves around contrasting scales of mesh or woven net effects and perforated mesh leather, layered over silk/wool mohair blended suitings, washed cotton poplin, white shirtings
Details & trims: Strap waist details on slouchy pleat-front pants
Footwear: Classic Oxfords reworked in punched leather to create an aereated mesh effect
Accessories: Woven belts, hand-held overscaled bags, mirrored sunglasses, soft unstructured caps, slim ties
