I think it's quite stupid that they keep it as a "client only" thing. I just find it slightly insulting, and I don't know why. The gold dress is beautiful though, I'll admit. But nothing else is striking. @mistress_f do you think you could ask your friend if the people who work at Dolce and Gabbana get to see pics of the show?

[mistress_f]

well it's a client thing till it's all over the couture editorials of basically every magazine in the world

and to be honest i think they'd cut my friends' hands if he leaked any photos (which i don't think he has anyway) lol

I was thinking that maybe on the red carpet we will see some designs but according to the quote below, that's not gonna happen, shame!

Quote:

The Daily Telegraph and three foreign newspapers were the only media outlets invited to the show, and Domenico Dolce said he would never allow the collection to be worn on Hollywood's red carpet. "This collection is for our customers, and they do not want to see their dresses on a celebrity, in an advert, or in a magazine," he said.

But what if a celebrity is a client and wanted to wear it on the red carpet .... ? (Although I don't see anyone wearing any of this on the red carpet unless they want to end up on the worst-dressed lists.)

The very couture-shaped tulip of that gold dress with the crown and the very regal Spanish feel to it, along with the large costume jewellery, very Lacroix, IMO.

I remember Daphne Guinness in Secret World of Haute Couture that she'd never buy anything that was seen being worn by a celebrity.

guess they're going with the Daphne law.

Just awsome!

This is really breathtaking, I haven't been this excited with D&G since their image change from S/S 2010, and the S/S 2012 collection. That golden dress on Zuzanna B...you can compare it to Lacroix, but oh my god, it's just so stunning.

for every Daphne are hundreds of Japanese, Russian and Middle Eastern clients willing to buy the entire collection, and they need the money. That said it is a stunnin collection!
