Dolce and Gabbana go "nu-rave"

Dolce and Gabbana have conquered menswear with their signature silhouette. Strong on the shoulder, nipped in at the waist, slim on the leg, it is the tailoring equivalent of the swimmer's body. If you want a great suit, this is the label to go to and to emphasise that point, the show started and finished with a parade of lean, impeccable black suits which followed their signature silhouette. The innovation came in the many different fabrics used, from fantastic glazed linen to black brocade and luxurious matt, ultra-lightweight wool. When it came to more casual looks Dolce and Gabbana were in the mood to experiment. Combats and hoodies were studded with LED’s for the ultimate in raver chic and linen trousers and jackets were stiffened with metal thread to create a sculpted yet crumpled look - Claudia Croft
