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.

Johnny Depp Gets Candid About Raising Kids Lily-Rose and Jack: ‘I Loved Being Papa'
Johnny Depp is getting candid. The actor sat down with The Sunday Times for a wide-ranging interview in which he discussed raising his two kids, Lily-Rose and Jack, with ex Vanessa Paradis. After the reporter spotted a painting behind Depp, the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star revealed it was a portrait of his daughter. 'I never finished it. She was ten then, and 25 now. Years get away from us, don't they?' the 62-year-old said before learning that the interviewer had two young children of his own. 'Oh, I envy you. I'm of the empty-nest syndrome,' Depp shared. The Academy Award nominee was then asked if he misses having his children around. 'Oh man, my kids growing up in the south of France in their youth? I was Papa. I cannot tell you how much I loved being Papa. Then, suddenly, Papa was out the window. I was Dad. But Papa was awesome and I'm getting old enough for Papa to possibly come back. Some motherf-----'s going to have to call me Papa!'

Open Channel: What'd You Think of '28 Years Later'?
For a long time, fans of 28 Days Later have held out hope for a third movie. To their surprise, Sony suddenly threw those fans a bone with the announcement 28 Years Later was happening, and what's more, the first film's creative duo of Danny Boyle and Alex Garland were returning to the zombie saga they began in 2002. With each trailer and peek at the film, Years has looked better and scarier. Reactions may have come surprisingly late—shortly before its release in theaters, weirdly—but despite that, they've been mostly high. Even those that don't really think the film works have given props to the cast and the filmmaking techniques used to show off the new suite of infected Garland and Boyle have cooked up. Sony's already got eyes on making at least two more 28 Years Later films, and a sequel, The Bone Temple, is arriving in January 2026. If Boyle and Garland have their way, those plans will involve bringing Cillian Murphy back as 28 Days' Jim for the hopeful third film. For now, we want to know what you thought of the first 28 Years Later chapter. Loved it, hated it, have thoughts on its ending—discuss amongst yourselves in the comments below. Want more io9 news?
