Kit Butler steps back into the Dolce & Gabbana universe, this time as the undisputed star of their fall-winter 2023 campaign. Fresh from his previous appearance in the brand’s Re-edition collection, the British model finds himself in familiar territory, lensed by Steven Meisel. This reunion is particularly noteworthy, as Kit recently fronted Meisel’s Zara collaboration.

Directed by Fabien Baron, the campaign is a study in modern allure, a contrast of sensuality and style. Kit dons an all-black wardrobe, a sartorial choice Dolce & Gabbana describes as a wellspring of unique emotions.

The setting is intimate, like a private chamber, where every object and texture is curated to amplify the mood. Kit poses on a glossy black chair, an object that complements his wardrobe and is a silent partner in this visual narrative.

The Dolce & Gabbana campaign focuses on the tactile as much as the visual. Garments become extensions of Kit’s persona, offering a sensory richness that engages touch and sight. The model slips into patent leather dress shoes and leather boots, rounding off his looks with a felt hat and flat cap.

Kit Butler becomes a canvas for Dolce & Gabbana’s sartorial vision in this season’s campaign. His wardrobe includes pieces ranging from a mesh-stitch sweater to sequined pants, each reflecting the brand’s dedication to forward-thinking design.

Overall, the advertisement is an invitation into the evolving ethos of the Dolce & Gabbana man—bold without sacrificing sophistication, modern with a nod to the timeless.
