Line We Love : D&G MAN FASHION SHOW SUMMER 2012

The designing duo Dolce and Gabbana saluted the versatile foulard in the spring/summer 2012 menswear collection for their second line, D&G.

This collection was inspired by the silky printed Foulard .The whole collection is characterized by the use of foulards as the central element .

The D&G collection previewed the foulard, appearing in half a dozen patterns, formed the defining element of everything from blazers to shirts, from swim trunks to trousers.

Foulard prints turned up on suede moccasins and hats.

The theme was a great occasion to deconstruct clothes, and restitch them with a colorful silk cloth to create a contrast of fabrics.

Tapered silk trousers had a denim waistline. The back of a denim shirt was a large foulard print — great ventilation on hot days. Another jean shirt had silken sleeves.

Also they served up linen trousers and shorts, distressed denim pants and shorts and another staple for next summer: raffia hats.

D&G’s trademark finale featured bare-chested models in silk foulard bathing trunks, wearing brightly colored suede moccasins, striding en masse down the runway.

This collection gets my heart-racing, excited for a sojourn just about anywhere. Chic, cool, rugged but also aged and a little flamboyant, this is what I'd dream to wear in the summer.
