So many meetings, so little time. I spent a chunk of my afternoon visiting one of the most gorgeous offices and showrooms I’ve ever been to in my entire life: Dolce & Gabbana.
I also met Salvo, the super man who takes care of all the celebrities in the glamorous and glittering world of Dolce & Gabbana such as Madonna, Kylie etc.
What should I wear at the Dolce & Gabbana show? Well, we both agreed that it’s NEVAH too early to wear sequins… haha! ;)
In this photo: Dolce & Gabbana and D&G menswear Spring 2010 invites, D&G backstage pass (love how they used my Mother & Child photo) and invite to the Dolce & Gabbana cocktal party at their Corso Venezia store featuring Italian swimmers Emiliano Brembilla, Paolo Bossini, Alessandro Terrin, Mirco di Tora and Nicola Cassio.
I wonder what the womenswear invites look like next season.. hmm.. ;)
Baby, we're not in Manila anymore . I kid you not when I say there are times when I want to smack myself on the face to see whether I'm awake or dreaming. Guess who recognized me from my infamous camel picture…
Unfortunately my dear readers, I don't remember the EXACT words we exchanged but it went something like this –
"And where do you live?" "Philippines." "You've come a long way!" "Yeahhh!!! Thank you so much for having me here!" "I know you. I have seen your photo. So you're the one in the camel!"
Not only Stefano Gabbana is good-looking, he's also super nice in real life and he definitely made me feel comfortable. J'adore!! OMG ang gwapo niya tumitili ang pek pek ko.
It's times like this that I want to scream to the entire world that I love my job, I love my job, I love my job.
Thank YOU so much to the wonderful and folks over at Dolce & Gabbana and Swide who took really good care of me and made everything possible. They even gave me a (very) quick tour of Metropol! I'll definitely cherish these moments! And yes, I would be love to join you guys again next season — womenswear!
Enough gushing… I have to work! More pictures, stories and backstage goodies from the show coming up.
By the meantime, check me out backstage at D&G Spring/Summer 2010.
It's super hot and super sunny here in Milan and the Dolce & Gabbana Spring 2010 menswear show is about to start in 3+ hours. I'm super duper lucky to be invited to the show. Can't wait to take tons of photos!

See you guys in a bit. Later this afternoon I'll also watch Burberry Prorsum. It's gonna be a crazy day, I can feel it. I need to run to the shop AFTER the Dolce show to find a memory card reader. Wish me luck!
PS. CAN I JUST SAY, MY DEAR READERS, I'M **STILL** FINDING THIS ALL WAYYY TOO SURREAL? I'm here in Milan about to watch the collections of fashion houses I've admired since I was young!
Mama mia! The super sexy, swishy and swanky folks over at Dolce & Gabbana’s digital arm (SWIDE) celebrates their favourite bloggers. Earlier this week they’ve featured Kitsune Noir and Melanie Crété.
