Dolce & Gabbana teams up with multiple photographers & models to deliver an upcoming book titled “Sacro: Visions by Dolce & Gabbana” out now.

Domenico Dolce is in charge of styling and photographers include Massimo Bianchi, Mattia Guolo & Aytekin Yalçın. Multiple models throughout including Mayya Kuznetsova, James Yates, Edmilson Tavares, Amelie Konselova, Leonardo Hanna Azrak & Birgit Veegen.

Dolce & Gabbana’s creations transport the reader to a world of fabrics, colors, shapes, and fragrances that goes beyond one’s sensory limits, involving the artistic experience “in a never-ending exchange between the sacred and the profane, love and passion, instinct and devotion.”

This experience of a greater reality, which enthralls and at the same time frightens us because of its enigmatic inability to be deciphered, is still manifested today in popular Sicilian culture and in the strong religious sentiment of the inhabitants of the island: this book is filled with images of the processions, the Easters, the Easter Monday celebrations taken in Sicily by the great masters of reportage photography, for such symbols of sacredness continue to characterize the outfits, the accessories, and the jewelry designed by Dolce & Gabbana, who over the years have interpreted them as a sign of love and respect for the arts.

The sacred heart, saints, the Madonna, the rosary, and the cross have always been just some of the recurring elements used for the collections of the Maison, which has embraced their iconography to represent the sacred.

In his introductory essay Alberto Rocca writes as follows, “Sacred is the memory of a beginning of perfect beauty and harmony,” and many of the photographs specifically taken for this book reveal themselves to the reader exactly as if they were visions..
