Milan Fashion Week FW12: Versace, Dolce & Gabbana
Who: Versace
What it made us think of: Lisbeth Salander takes the veil.
What we liked: studs, leather, gothic motifs, velvet, baby bangs, coats, yellow, orange, padded hips, chain mail
What we didn't: big purses without handles, mesh boots, excessive religious symbolism, jewelry prints, name print
Who: Dolce & Gabbana
What it made us think of: Upon finding themselves war widows, a bevy of young women form their own convent in the Alpine region of Italy where they are now known for their tapestry skills.
What we liked: velvet, capes, embroidered shoes, gold (I feel like Dolce & Gabbana knows how to work gold better than most houses), tiaras, soft makeup, makes grandma's pillows look fashionable
What we didn't: insanely tiny bags, creepy angel earrings, diaper shorts, excessive sheer
