Leaving their native Italian soil to land in Manhattan with a collection packed in suitcases, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabanna had asked Steven Meisel to photograph their next campaign. Steven wanted to convey emotions and the clothes to accentuate Isabella Rosselini’s attitudes.
Her crying, her laughing, got the drama out of very genuine designs. The photographs were a new approach to a fashion campaign. And who better than Isabella could reveal the neorealist influence in Dolce&Gabbana’s creations; her father Roberto Rossellini invented it somehow.
A strong connection between the designers and their muse plus a confidence in Steven Meisel’s photographic eye made it happen.
Fall/Winter 89-90 was characterised by the simplicity and femininity expressed in their first ever embroidered corsets to become part of their trademark and by a stronger and more underlined sex appeal for an interpreted version of Anna Magnani.
