Military Jackets & Distressed Jeans

D & G Go Wilde with Men's Fall 2009 Collection

While they splashed their mostly conservative Men’s Fall 2009 runway with a bit of color for their main Dolce & Gabbana collection, the Italian duo went with a military vibe and a nod to Oscar Wilde in their D & G collection.

Set to the music of The Verve, Oscar Wilde quotes were displayed on the screen while the models showcased the Spring 2009 collection, which featured Ruritanian military jackets, distressed jeans and floral-printed velvets!
