dolce and gabbana alta moda f/w 2018 

okay but just to add in:

  • this is shot on the lake Como ;
  • the dress reprises the shape of old wedding dresses of Lombardy tradition ;
  • the headgear “needles” reprise too the traditional clothing and they are one of the most iconic things about the region ;
  • In general, the dress reprises the character of Lucia from the novel I promessi sposi (the Betrothed) as she’s introduced the day of her (not then happening but should have happened) wedding with the needles painting an halo around her face ;
  • The skirt also has a painting with Renzo and Lucia, the two mains on, and the title of the novel visible ;
  • The puffy sleeves also have two quotes of the novel, one  the incipit with the description of the Lake and one with the “goodbye” Lucia has to give to the lake, the mountains and her home as she escapes .

So this piece literally melts fashion and literature, thank you for coming to my ted talk !
