Dolce & Gabbana embrace wrinkled romance for spring-summer 2026
MILAN (AP) — Dolce & Gabbana beckoned the warm weather with crumpled, take-me-anywhere comfort in their menswear collection for spring-summer 2026, previewed during Milan Fashion Week on Saturday.
The show opened and closed with a relaxed pajama silhouette — deliberately rumpled and effortless — in a clash of stripes, with both shorts and long trousers.
The Beethoven soundtrack belied designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana's more deliberate intent, underscoring the designers' structured approach to soft tailoring.
A broad shoulder double-breasted suit jacket and tie worn with pink pinstriped PJ pants encapsulated the classic summer dilemma: work vs. pleasure.
Raw knitwear, or furry overcoats, added texture. Boxers peeked out of waistbands, and big shirt cuffs out of jacket sleeves, challenging formal and casual codes.
Nothing was cleaner on the runway than a crisp striped pajama top in sky-blue and white stripes tucked into white leather Bermuda shorts — good for work and for play.
The designers' finale featured pajama suits, shorts and pants, with beaded floral patterned embroidery for an evening seaside shimmer, worn with fuzzy sliders. Twin cameo brooches gave an antique accent.
The crowd outside got to share in the fun when the finale models took the looks onto the streets, taking a full lap outside the designers' Metropol theater. Front-row guests included actors Zane Phillips, Theo James, Lucien Laviscount and Michele Morrone.

A Young and the Restless Newman Takeover After June 16
Victor, Nikki, and Nick are all off to meet the mysterious Aristotle Dumas on the June 16 episode of The Young and the Restless. Along with Sharon, Sally, and Billy, they're all playing a lively guessing game of Who Is Dumas? Which means they've taken their eyes off the prize? And what's the prize? Why, Newman Enterprises, of course… and who was left at home to watch the store? We all know that Victor (Eric Braeden) calls Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) 'my baby.' (Which is patronizing and condescending and, if we do say so ourselves… creepy.) But we — and she — know who Victor's real baby is. It's the company he built from the ground up with no help from anyone and without ever doing a bad or illegal thing ever: Newman Enterprises. Victor cares more about it than he does about his precious family, no matter how much he might insist to the contrary. That's why he keeps hiring and firing his children and other relatives from it. Nobody is quite good enough to run it — not the way Victor wants it run. MORE: Find out what happened on Y&R today. Victor is only going to France with Nikki and Nick (Joshua Morrow) because he wants to make sure Dumas doesn't do anything silly, like give Billy (Jason Thompson), Sally (Courtney Hope) or Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) the means by which they might put a chink in Newman Enterprises' armor. He left Adam (Mark Grossman) in charge, confident that his younger son would never do anything that might make his daddy love him less (especially since Victor has already made it clear in countless way to Adam that he loves him less than Victoria [Amelia Heinle] and Nick. Abby [Melissa Ordway] doesn't count.) READ MORE: Here's what happens next on Y&R. Except Victor didn't count on Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) making sad faces at Adam about following Victor's orders and going after Billy. Adam will do anything Chelsea says. He told her he'll deal with Victor. Could that be stealing his entire company out from under Victor while he's away? What will Victor do without his 'baby' then?
