The History of Men by Dolce & Gabbana

The History Of Man” is an editorial + video shot by Robbie Fimmano and styled by Karl Templerto celebrates Dolce & Gabbana’s 20 years of man making designs at Interview Magazine.  WHEN DESIGNERS DOMENICO DOLCE AND STEFANO GABBANA LAUNCHED THEIR FIRST MENSWEAR COLLECTION IN 1990, THEY DID SO WITH A VERY PARTICULAR VISION OF MASCULINITY THAT INCLUDED PLENTY OF MUSCLES, STUBBLE, AND SEX. THEIR CLOTHES DREW HEAVILY ON A CINEMATIC, 1970S-INFLUENCED NOTION OF RAW, RUGGED MALE GLAMOUR, COMBINING CLASSIC SARTORIAL REFINEMENTS LIKE LUXE FABRICS AND SHARP ITALIAN TAILORING WITH A FORWARD-LOOKING FASHION SENSIBILITY AND A HEALTHY DOSE OF SICILIAN MACHISMO. THIS YEAR MARKS THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT FORAY INTO PREVIOUSLY UNCHARTED WATERS FOR THE MILAN-BASED DUO, AND AS THEIR LATEST COLLECTION PROVES, THEY’RE STILL THE CONSUMMATE AUTEURS WHEN IT COMES TO EXPLORING AND CELEBRATING WHAT MAKES A MAN A MAN. DOMENICO AND STEFANO HAVE FOR ME ALWAYS BEEN ABLE TO ENCAPSULATE ITALIAN CHARACTER AND TRADITION IN THEIR CLOTHING, ALONG WITH SEXY GLAMOUR. THEY KNOW HOW TO MAKE MEN LOOK SMASHING AND SMART. TONY WAR MR. DOLCE AND MR. GABBANA HAVE THE ABILITY TO CREATE A LOOK THAT IS RELEVANT IN THE FASHION WORLD YET STILL MASCULINE AND TIMELESS. IT IS CLASSIC STYLE BUT STILL YOUNG AND CURRENT. A DOLCE & GABBANA MAN IS A STYLISH MAN WHO ISN’T AFRAID TO LOOSEN HIS TIE. MATTHEW MCCONAUGHEY http://www.interviewmagazine.com/media/video/19967
