Dolce & Gabbana "Italiana"  

In the not so distant past, certain choices made by the italian brand have been frowned upon by the majority of the fashion industry "savants". 

However, one thing that can never be frowned upon or dismissed, is Domenico Dolce's and Stefano Gabbana's persistence in referring to the italian traditions and to iconically italian concepts. 

For the promo of their "Matt Silk" eyewear line they drew inspiration from the past of the italian cinema -comedy, to be more specific- and created a 90-second short film reminiscent of a glorious, trendsetting era in the history of italian cinema.  

"Italiana" was directed by Luca Finotti and features model Bianca Balti and actress Anna Orso. Convertible, scarves, the italian coast: Can't get any better. 

I say: Bravi!
