What the beginning of the Milan Fashion Week brought
The Milan Fashion Week hosts the most prestigious fashion houses this year, including Dolce & Gabbana, Prada and Versace. And it was D&G who introduced the new SS2021 collection as one of the first. What was out first thought when we saw it? WOW! And then: wait a moment… We've already seen something similar, if in a slightly more sober version! So we took a trip down our fashion memory lane to see if we were simply confused, or actually experiencing déjà vu. And guess what! In 2018, the star brand Dior came up with the patchwork method, a runway show full of colors and a playful background. They just didn't go as wild.
Fashion trends constantly repeat themselves, and patchwork (a specific textile technique in which small, differently colored pieces of fabric are sewn together to create geometric patterns) has been basking in glory in recent years. Its presence in the new D&G collection is therefore not that surprising. Leaving aside the question of who was the first (who knows, Dolce might have been hiding these sketches and the concept of the show in his drawer for years), the new SS2021 is a great, carefree and luxurious ride!

A playful ride out of this gloomy world
The creator brings insight, playfulness, a pinch of cheekiness and, above all, a piece of his unmistakable DNA to the current somewhat gloomy world. Try to find a woman who wears Dolce & Gabbana and doesn't exude sex appeal! You might be searching for one forever...

Everyone will be wearing this! And so will we!
The duo Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana presented almost ninety outifts and we need like half of them in our wardrobes, now. Trendy denim jackets, brightly colored dresses of various cuts, shades and lengths, minimalist white blouses, sexy boots in all the colors of the rainbow, massive flowers for your hair, elegant black and white plaid patterns or jeans like you haven't seen them before? None of this should be missing in your wardrobe next season!

Instead of haute couture, we got carnival fashion
How to put this... I spent an hour flipping through the gallery. And the collection gave me a headache. I have conflicting feelings about it. I really like Dolce and Gabbana, they're cool, but this time they seem to gave gotten some strange drugs from their psychiatrists. Or maybe they've been high on ectasy while creating this entire collection. It's so wild that when you keep browsing through the clothes for a while, your eyes will start to hurt, or else you'll get a raging migraine. Or both. You'll get into the kind of psychedelic state when your worse and your better self are screaming at each other and you find yourself unable to recognize reality from delusion. Personally, I think this overly colorful collection isn't all that great.

I understand that spring and summer call for cheerful and bold colors, but at least one of these colors is too much, and besides, they're everywhere. Really, at least one of these things could be just white or black... The "too many colors, everywhere" problem applies 99 % of the collection...
Jolanda stealing hens

Don't get mad, but the whole collection seems to have been made for carnies. There are so many clashing patterns everywhere that I can imagine Jolanda as young girl, stealing chickens from her neighbors dressed in one of these outfits, so that the family would have something to put in their mouths. It has nothing in common with the haute couture I'm used to seeing at Dolce and Gabbana.
There wasn't enough fabric

It also occurred to me that back in the day, when we had nothing here, that is, in the time of deep totalitarianism, women use to sew everything for everyone by themselves. Mainly grandmothers. And these rags look like something grandma would put together from leftover scraps of fabrics. But there weren't enough scraps for this model...

Remember Cruella? The film is simply legendary. It is a 1996 movie, but decades later, it can apparently still be a source of inspiration. The spots are sometimes replaced by a different patter, but the black and white classic never disappoints. But... who wants to be Cruella De Vil nowadays? Nobody...
