The Dolce & Gabbana fall 2009 collection is everything I hoped for and more. Dresses with gigantic sleeves, polka dot suits and long leather gloves worn as scarves gave modern looks to very 1930s/1940s silhouettes. Dresses with black and white prints of Marilyn Monroe got larger as the show went on. The last dress had a cage crinoline that could take up an entire New York sidewalk. I thought the boys did a wonderful job of saluting classic femininity and style with this collection. Now I just need a reasonable excuse to max out my credit card for one these dresses.
