DRESS WITH SICILIAN MOSAICS
Dolce & Gabbana, Autumn/Winter 2013/14
Printed silk with sequins and Swarovski crystals

This dress features images of mosaics from Sicily’s celebrated Cathedral of Monreale. Such cultural references have infused Dolce & Gabbana collections and advertising campaigns since its founding in 1985.
