Dolce & Gabbana have produced a commercial and likeable collection, called Sea, Sun and Love, for Milan fashion week. On Sunday in Milan, the designers once again celebrated their brand of Sicilian chic on the catwalk with a colourful and folksy collection, which brought to mind warm summer days spent pottering around cobbled squares and dining at street cafes with printed table clothes.

Dubbed Sea, Sun and Love, it was a commercial and likeable collection. The accessories were particularly strong. Swinging chandelier earrings, a follow-up to this summer's pasta styles, looked like jolly tourist trinkets but were, in fact, based on Sicilian puppets, head-shaped ceramic vases from Caltagirone or the décor from traditional local wheelbarrows – all key inspirations for the prints this season, too. Sculptural wooden wedges featured flowers on their heel. Flats came with cute pom-poms. Women wore printed headscarves.

A grand finale saw a pack of models – a signature Dolce trick – in swimwear descend on to the catwalk to applause. Backstage, Domenico Dolce confirmed that this collection was all about "the idea of glamorous holidays in Sicily".
