A closer look at the stage
The opulence of Italian luxury homeware has found a new home in the Philippines, as Opulence Design Concept proudly unveils the Dolce & Gabbana Casa collection. This much-anticipated launch took place at the prestigious Greenbelt 5 Fashion Walk, marking the debut of Opulence Design Concept’s Pop-Up Store, set to enchant visitors for the next two months.
The grand launch was a spectacle of Italian elegance, orchestrated with the flair and finesse that only Dolce & Gabbana can deliver. The event was a celebration of both style and substance, featuring breathtaking floral installations by master events stylist Gideon Hermosa. These installations drew inspiration from Dolce & Gabbana Casa's signature motifs: the vibrant Carretto Siciliano, the serene Blu Mediterraneo, the bold Leopardo, and the striking Zebra. Each motif was brought to life in a dazzling display that perfectly encapsulated the brand’s essence.
Adding to the allure of the evening were the muses of Dolce & Gabbana Casa: international fashion icon and actress Heart Evangelista, lifestyle columnist and philanthropist Tessa Prieto, interior designer Chat Fores, and fashion designer Rosanna Ocampo. Their presence, along with their unique, self-expressive styles, mirrored the collection's vibrant spirit and added a touch of glamour to the launch.
Rooted in the rich heritage and values of Dolce & Gabbana, the D & G Casa collection introduces a new era of luxury living in the Philippines. The collection celebrates the Italian tradition of "fatto a mano" or handcrafted excellence, featuring a vibrant fusion of colors, motifs, and designs that are quintessentially Italian. Each piece in the collection is a testament to individuality and self-expression, transforming any living space into a vibrant sanctuary of style.
