When it comes to putting on an uplifting show in Milan, no one does it better than Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. Of late, the designer duo has put millennials with an impressive social media following in their front rows in a bid to connect to another generation of consumers. This season, however, they took that idea and ran even further with it. With 20-year-old Austin Mahone belting out catchy tunes, a riotous mix of celebrities, models, influencers, European royalty and VIPs graced the runway, each dressed in a look that showcased every trick in the designers’ book. Think: The unabashed use of sparkly embellishments, bold prints, fur, feathers and lace.
