"If their men's collection was a celebration of family, it made perfect sense that Dolce & Gabbana's women's show would focus on Mamma, the fulcrum of the family. And what a focus! Tearing oneself away from the onstage baby-watching, it was almost equally entertaining to see how Domenico and Stefano responded to the inspiration. There were print (and embroideries) based on drawings by Domenico's nieces and nephews that looked exactly like naughty kids had taken some crayons to Mum's best dress. But those showpieces would lily exert less commercial appeal than a classic black dress or double-breasted skirt suit with a black fox stole or a simple rose-strewn shift. The rose was everything tot he collection, not just because it's the flower you give your mother on Mother's Day, but because Stefano's favourite childhood memory of his own mother is the rose scent of her red lipstick. Memory speaks loudest when it's closest to home." - style.com
