Dolce & Gabbana’s latest Alta Sartoria collection effortlessly blends traditional and modern elements, evoking the sun-kissed beauty of Sardinia. The collection is distinguished by its exquisite embroidery, featuring intricate floral motifs crafted through various techniques, including crochet, petit point, and detailed stitching.
A stunning floral suit adorned with intricately embroidered pink roses perfectly captures the collection’s exceptional attention to detail and captivating romantic charm. Dolce & Gabbana’s mastery of texture and detail is further showcased through its expert weaving techniques.
One notable example is the use of Pibione, a traditional Sardinian weaving method that creates intricate patterns with raised, grape-like bumps. Employed in traditional hand-woven heritage textiles, Pibione is reimagined in a breathtaking white vest. Its raised, textured details yield a striking fusion of traditional craftsmanship and statement style.

Velvet, lace, and moiré fabrics steal the spotlight in statement pieces, including a dramatic black coat with intricate embroidery paired with a beaded top and sleek trousers. A masterful blend of tradition and modernity is also seen in a tailored suit, where an ornate jacket and lace-up corset come together in perfect harmony.
Outerwear makes a strong statement, nodding to the traditional dress of Sardinian shepherds. The iconic mastruca coat, famously worn by the enigmatic Mamuthones during the Mamoiada Carnival, is reinterpreted—exemplified by a show-stopping black coat featuring textured fabric.
The coats in the collection boldly experiment with innovative silhouettes and fabric treatments, marrying avant-garde flair with classic menswear. In doing so, they respectfully pay homage to Sardinian tradition, grounding the collection’s position at the intersection of heritage and contemporary design.
