"For us the important message is faith in the future and in change, we need to reset, have ideas and professionalism, build on solid foundations" say Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana before the show of their new collection entitled Patchwork Sicilia, which is an anthem to union and coexistence of different cultures and an invitation to give new life to what has been abandoned, as they did by retrieving some pieces of a 1992 collection from the archive and then giving a series of various fabrics to as many seamstresses, so that each told her way of putting them together in a different way.


    This uniting of different fabrics and fabrics is not only the soul of the collection for next summer, on the catwalk today at the Metropol for 350 guests - but "it is a social fact - says Stefano Gabbana - it represents our desire to bring together the cultures of everything. the world, to feel good together, each with his own vision, living together in respect without problems ".

And then in patchwork there is another very important theme at the moment, that of sustainability, of reuse: if on the catwalk threads and fabrics are already combined together, in a thousand different variations, the invitation to the public is to renew the wardrobe. at home: "take two t-shirts, the sizes and combine them - is Stefano Gabbana's suggestion - take a jeans, cut it on the side, then insert a strip of fabric, this is patchwork and it is sustainable, you can give life back to what has been abandoned "as they did with the first item on the catwalk, combining two different men's jackets to which they matched patchwork lapels as in a collage.

"We liked -raccontano designers - this idea of not throwing, putting attention to this special moment, also to emphasize that the message is to unite, not break it up, stay together in this global moment, share and do not waste.


    We are not intellectuals, but having a company we know what it means to live and survive ".

In this regard, they explain that "parading is fundamental, believing in it, fighting, moving forward, building, not closing down because that is the danger, the fear of facing reality. Until now, we have all lived in progress, in comfort but during the war. the fashion companies were closed, in this delicate moment we must be proactive and we are also lucky enough to be able to do so. For us it is important to take actions, work and give to work, move, otherwise we risk, because an incredible crisis is underway, we sell 50% less, there are markets that no longer work and sales have moved online. The two of us are positive and curious and we see evolution as an interesting thing, but surely there will be shops to close, while there will be some a symbol that they will remain. However we must not get depressed, a change is taking place and we must understand how to change ".


    They started doing it by focusing on what the market is asking for today: easy pieces for the day, given that the worldly occasions are less than before.

So here are patchwork jeans of all kinds, collage sweatshirts, caftans with suns, flowers, mosaics, brocade overcoats, tassels, trimmings, small boleros, wide skirts, bermuda shorts and boots, trouser suits with jacket with prominent shoulders.

On everything, scarves and turbans knotted on the head, flowers on the neck or in the hair.

Very few single-color garments - 4 or 5 out of 98 looks - absent black for the first time in years.
