They’ve Gone Plaid!
The other day I was watching the D&G fashion show that was in Paris and I’m very excited about their collection. D&G has gone plaid! PLAID! PLAID! PLAID!
Plaid blazers, plaid trousers, plaid stockings, plaid chiffon dresses, plaid skirts, just plaid! You get the idea. Topping the wardrobe the models donned uber cute round-toe pumps with chunky heels and not-so-cute patent leather boots in red, orange, and brown knee high boots – I’m slightly disturbed by the patent orange boots.
Other accessories in the show included the “Micol” bag, which is an envelope-shaped clutch made from patent leather, velvet, and python. There is also the “Nicla” bag that comes in various sizes and is made from leather and multicolored patents.
The Plaid Fall and Winter D&G’s inspiration comes from the tartan of Scottish kilts and England and the wonderful film “The Queen”.
Overall, my favorites are the chiffon plaid dresses and short dresses, and the long plaid skirts with the leather buckle and straps to the side. See more of D&G’s collection here !
