Dolce and Gabbana, where did your taste go?



After seeing the horrifying F/W 2007 collection by Dolce and Gabbana, now I see the tasteless ugly D&G S/S 2007 collection for sale now! These outfits look extremely cheap and cheesy, with a sad resemblance to Vegas showgirls. I mean, Domenico and Stefano are cool, but not so cool when they start treating us as some morons who would wear these, let alone paying 500+ for them!!! I love floral prints and I often wear them in spring, but these prints are just ridiculously tacky and does not look like something designed by the talented duo. Honestly, the long dress up there looks like what those Juliana dancer in Japan back in 1990's would wear, or some trashy cheap Chinese dress costume they let you rent at tourist attractions in China. And check out that slit on the yellow mini skirt and pale skittle coloured cardigan! That ensemble just look incredibly cheap and trashy. The jersey is hanging and I cannot see any structure what so ever. That metallic fuschia Greek-inspired dress with the chain is simply ridiculous. One could seriously look like some Roman warrior wearing that. Those unflattering chain just makes one look unproportionally top heavy and wide. The whole thing is just costume-like and cheap. Do I even need to explain myself for that unimproved-80's dress with the horrible print and ugly shade of pink? Adieu Adieu, I fare thee well the good taste Dolce and Gabbana!

As a matter of fact, If I am to pay 500+ on one of those cheap looking D&G dresses above, I would much rather spend 300-500 for a nice contemporary designer floral dress! In fact, many contemporary designers actually make really nice, well-constructed, versatile dresses that can be easily worn in everyday life. For example, below is a floral mini dress by Rebecca Taylor. It has a high waistline that hides fat (very useful for early spring before you manage to lose the winter bulk just yet), decent floral print, and nice hybrid of rossett and frill in the bottom in shape of white flowers. It is only 365 at Bergdorf Goodman and it looks better quality.
