In Dolce & Gabbana’s Autumn/Winter 2021 collection, tradition merges with innovation. The fashion house recreates the dramatic silhouettes of its past – the strong shoulders, the show-stopping outerwear – and transports them into the digital era, using technologically advanced fibres and textures. In this 90s-inspired shoot, photographer Josie Hall and stylist Kyanisha Morgan take us on a kaleidoscopic trip through the collection, intensifying it with even more colour, gloss and high-drama dynamism.
