Dolce & Gabbana loves to adorn its fashions and handbags with diamonds and pearls. In fact, the luxury label loves precious stones so much it’s created a new coffee table book called, funnily enough, Diamonds and Pearls.
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana handpicked their favorite clothes and purses from the fashion house’s archives for the book. The selected pieces were given a new lease of life, with sequins, pearls, gold leaf, and of course, dazzling Swarovski diamonds. The jazzed-up fashions were then draped over life-sized mannequins, and shot by Austrian photographer Guenter Parth.
“Glamour and luxury. The essence and the evolution of our fashion are reflected in the pictures in this book,” Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana said in a statement.
The Diamonds and Pearls book is available for $270 from your nearest Dolce & Gabbana store. It’s a hefty sum, but it’s money you can feel good spending. All proceeds will benefit the children’s charity, Butterfly Onlus Foundation.
