Dolce&gabbana : From the Heart to the Hands
Overview
The many influences of Italian culture on fashion powerhouse Dolce&Gabbana. From the Heart to the Hands pays tribute to the values of Fatto a Mano (hand-made), an essential part of Dolce&Gabbana since its founding in 1985. The book brings together a unique collection of Alta Moda and Alta Sartoria garments, exquisite jewelry, and archival treasures for the first time. Curator Florence Müller explores Dolce&Gabbana's Italian heritage and the enduring influence of Italian culture in inspiring some of the brand's most iconic and innovative collections. The book's ten chapters--handcraft, artistic glass, the leopard, devotion, the workshop, architecture, the white baroque, Sicilian traditions, goddesses and opera--combine runway and editorial photography with images of art, architecture, movies, and artisanal craft. An open love letter to Italian culture and Dolce&Gabbana design, this project serves as a translation of Domenico Dolce's and Stefano Gabbana's ideas, from the heart through to their realization by hand. Behind-the-scenes images reveal the intricate fabric inlays, leatherwork, embroidery, lacework, crochet, beadwork, and multitude of other techniques that brings each garment to life.
