Effortless attitude, a bold stride and cosmopolitan allure -- that's the Dolce & Gabbana "cool girl", the star of the women's autumn/winter 2025 collection. The collection is modern and fresh, inspired by cool girls on the streets. The looks are based on styling that's natural and glamourous at the same time. The focus is no longer on a single item, but on the styling and the approach to dressing -- they want to concentrate on the creation of the outfit and not on the single item itself. The collection is divided into two sections -- outerwear and evening wear. Utility-inspired leather outerwear discover lingerie, slip dresses with intricate details and lace bodysuits. Masculine and feminine elements blend seamlessly, while street style and urban influences guide aesthetic choices. Eveningwear becomes truly captivating with dresses showcased in all their refined glory -- without any distractions -- featuring intricate embroidery and shimmering touches of sequins and crystals.
