An Exclusive Exhibition Unveiled

Embark on a journey through the creative universe of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, two of fashion’s most iconic designers, in their exhibition showcasing the brand’s most cherished pieces. Running until 31 July 2024, the captivating From The Heart To The Hands event at the Palazzo Reale in Milan offers a deep dive into the duo’s artistic process, from initial inspiration to the meticulous craftsmanship behind their unique creations.

The Inspiration and Craftsmanship Behind the Creations

Immerse yourself in the world of Dolce & Gabbana through an exploration of their couture collections. The exhibition invites you to witness the transformation of dreams into reality, highlighting the intricate handcrafting techniques that define their work. Featuring exclusive items from their Alta Moda, Alta Sartoria, and Alta Gioielleria collections, each room showcases these bespoke creations against stunning backdrops that encapsulate the essence of their artistry.

A Tribute to Italian Heritage

Wander through rooms that pay homage to various aspects of Italian culture, from art and architecture to music and opera. The exhibition is a testament to Dolce & Gabbana’s deep-rooted love for their heritage and traditional craftsmanship. Each space reflects their enduring passion for “la dolce vita,” with installations celebrating Venetian glassmaking, Sicilian folk art, and iconic Italian landmarks.

A Peek into the Couture Atelier

One of the most evocative sections of the exhibit replicates the brand’s couture atelier, complete with artisans at work. Here, you can observe the creation of tailored jackets and corsets, which form the structural foundation of many couture gowns. This section highlights the technical prowess and aesthetic vision that have cemented Dolce & Gabbana’s place in fashion history.

Celebrity Endorsements and Global Tour

The exhibition’s grand opening attracted stars like Cher, Naomi Campbell, and Helen Mirren, adding a touch of glamour to this cultural event. After it runs in Milan, the exhibition will tour globally, bringing the magic of Dolce & Gabbana’s couture collections to fashion enthusiasts worldwide.
