Dolce&Gabbana Menswear Spring/Summer 2013
Dolce&Gabbana Menswear Spring/Summer 2013 |
[Milan], June 28, 2012 - The Dolce&Gabbana Summer 2013 Menswear collection was presented on June 23rd, during a fashion show in Milan, featuring Sicilian men, personally chosen by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana in lieu of models.
The personality, simplicity and natural beauty which emanates from the faces of these men is the current source of inspiration for Dolce&Gabbana. |

In his work, "L'isola plurale", Gesualdo Bufalino, a great connoisseur of Sicily and of being Sicilian, best described the distinguishing characteristics of Sicilian people: their personalities and vices, induced by history, climate and insularity.
“[…] So many Sicilies, why? Because Sicily has had the fate of finding itself, over the centuries, as the link between the great Western culture and the temptations of the desert and the sun, between reason and magic, between the storms of feelings and the heat of passion. Sicily suffers from an excess of identity and I do not know whether this is good or bad.
“[…] Every Sicilian is ultimately an unrepeatable incarnation of psychological and moral ambiguity." |

- Printed stripes on thick hem cloth or cotton inspired by the Sicilian beaches such as those of Taormina, Cefalù, Mondello and the Eolie islands.
