Dolce and Gabbana's new spring summer 2015 campaign displays not only insight into a very successful fashion house but a homage to the rich, flamenco style of Spain; in particularly bull fighting.
With models such as Irina Sharipova, Bianca Balti, Blanca Padilla ad Vittoria Ceretti taking centre stage throughout the campaign, Domenico Dolce and Stephano Gabbana adopt several poses reminiscent of Spain and the country's influential matador image. The spring 2015 collection's beautiful bolero jackets, polka dot skirts, black lace shirts and rose patterned accessories wow in every photo, with a little help from Jose Maria Manzaneres - who became the youngest ever bullfighter at 12 years old. And with a simple white washed wall backdrop, the fiery clothes certainly do all the talking.
Following on from Stephano Gabbana's #dandgfamily incentive which encourages people to post images of themselves with their families on Twitter and Instagram to celebrate the love of the D&G family, not only does this campaign feature industry models but women from the older generation. Three old ladies look absolutely divine and elegant holding richly embellished bags with gold crowns upon their hair, showing that fashion is for everyone and is not restricted to just those who follow the trends. Style is timeless.
In terms of styling, Oribe Canales is key to the campaigns tasteful style, with make up by Pat Mcgrath and photographs by the visionary Domenico Dolce. Overall, it would have been nice to see Dolce and Gabbana mix up their latest campaign with a different design aesthetic. For the last couple of seasons, their womenswear campaigns have featured the same set up with the same sexy, Italian heritage thrown in to tell their story. Yes, it is beautiful but it would have been nice to see something a bit...different.
