Next at the Dolce & Gabbana show, came a line-up of danglingchandeliers in the theatre and, at the end of the fashion runway, agolden coach. Cinderella in all her guises - except as a ragged littlecreature - was at the heart of the inspiration of StefanoGabbana and DomenicoDolce. She appeared in a sparkling dress and spiky footwear(Where was the glass slipper?). She also put on a scarlet paradeuniform to prove that in today's fairy tales, the girls could kickaround the boys.

Clue number one: you get to have a dress marked with imagesof the designer's cats. "We wanted to give the audience a smile, dreams of happiness -we know that real life is different, but our job is to givesomething lighter to the people," said Domenico, while Stefano saidthey wanted to create a look of Frozen "because it ispossible to give people a beautiful dream." There was a touch of Alice in Wonderland madness aboutthe show and its clothes. By the time a Disney army of modelsstrode out in any colour as long as it was pink and sprinkled withsparkles, the show looked like a holiday outing for kids. I wouldgo as a flower princess in a vast coat smothered with roses -rather than in an outfit that Cinderella's helpful little miceembroidered all over.

This collection may go down best with cutie pie Japaneseshoppers. But such is the quality of the work, especially thetailoring, it could fulfil many other women's dreams. I askedDomenico and Stefano if we would see any of the pieces at theOscars. "Too far away," they said. What! Even in a magic goldencarriage? (责任编辑:admin) |
