Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, national treasures, are the undisputed leaders of the fashion industry. It's a design that's both stark and playful, far beyond what we define as a trend. Intricate embellishments, retro silhouettes, and vibrant prints are all details that make people talk. Some people say that Dolce & Gabbana's creations are "not worth the middle", and in a sense they are, Dolce & Gabbana's shoes are like works of art, with crystal jewelry, embroidery, prints, lace, silk satin and other opulent and heavy-duty elements all over each pair of shoes, and they are amazingly luxurious.
Rhythm, laughter and fun are the key words for the Spring/Summer 2017 collection, and this edition of Dolce & Gabbana's Mary Janes still doesn't intend to be understated. The heel of the Valve collection is the most lively, with 10cm of crystal sprinkled with silk forged beads and tulle upper, which shines when walking; The other from the same collection is even more spicy, with six rows of tassels cascading from the ankle and the upper embellished with shimmering colourful sequins.
If you're not a fan of Dolce & Gabbana's luxury, try the Ortensia collection, inspired by an English garden in Sicily, with hydrangeas blooming on the opaline heel and toe of the shoe, a fresher look that pairs with plain jeans or dresses.
