With the Fall/Winter 2009/2010 men’s collection, Dolce & Gabbana goes back to the origins of the
brand with a black and white portrait of Sicily, revisiting all the hues from Baroque to Neorealism
to aristocracy.
There’s a willingness and need for profound and binding ties. This is reflected in a renewed interest

between men and their own roots, their own land and family.
