Dolce and Delicious x
I have a sentimental weakness for the advertising campaigns of Dolce & Gabbana and the way they always manage to capture charisma, lust and a sense of humour, all tied up with the rich heat of the mediterranean – much needed in these bone-chilling, frosty days of January (there’s even a rumour of snow today..)
There’s a tangy taste of the world, new and old (which is probably best not analysed too closely..who knew that Sicily was so rich in the tradition of Flamenco?) But the silhouettes are delicious..
However, the true stars of the show are the Nonnas, even modelling pop socks that steal the limelight..
Bright eyed, worldly-wise..and having the time of their lives..I bet they could cook a up mean pasta..
I want to be there. Like now.
Laters, Kate x
Fabulous! Thanks for sharing.
It’s such a magical combination…fashion and personality.. xxx
I have been loving Dolce & Gabbana’s advertising for awhile, too. Not only are the offerings lovely, but the emotions and involvement shows a slice of Life (granted a more glamorous slice – but, hey, it’s fashion). Plus, I always love offerings from a brand that is cut for curves. XO
Sigh. Some of those cuts..just delicious..it’s true – it’s so refreshing to see things cut for curves.. xxx
Love the nonnas!
Aren’t they fabulous! xxx
I love that they pick Monica Bellucci and Madonna, women well past their twenties, to be sexy and feminine and powerful.
The message seems to be slowly getting through..sell us fashion, not youth..strength not teenagers… xxx
just gotta love that italian sensibility and style…
Isn’t it utterly edible..like a rich chianti in a crystal wine glass! xxx
Love it!!
A heavenly relief after scrolling through my reader. Fabulous!
In the dark days of winter, this is what we need! xxx
Hey nonnie no…..hey Nonnnas yes!!! Xxx
Aren’t they fabulous!! I love the pictures where they are giggling! xxx
This was so great! Thank you!
A ray of mediterranean sunshine! xxx
Hehe I bet the nonnas were spitting three times and crossing themselves three more once the models turned their back. Lest the evil eye bring those devils who forgot to put their skirts on, back Tsk tsk tsk 🙂
Hehehehe! xxx
I hope to be so gorgeous!
