Dolce&Gabbana’s Fall/Winter 2026 Fashion Show presents ‘The Portrait of Man’.

The runway show featured an innovative format where models sat among the audience, standing up to walk the runway. 

One by one, they suddenly stood up from their seats, stepped out of the audience, and began walking the runway.

The show was all about blurring the line between attendees and models.

The runway became a contemporary gallery of portraits, in which every look represents a self-portrait.

It felt almost theatrical, as if anyone in the crowd could have been the next person to stand up and reveal a look.

The idea was to make the show feel less like a traditional runway and more like a portrait of everyday men. 

Men you pass on the street without realizing they’re part of the spectacle.

The brand consistently mixes high-profile celebrity guests, diverse models.

The Face of D&G, Madonna was front and center.

Tailoring plays a fundamental role, not as a rigid code but as a tool of expression.

Shoulders define character.

‘Pyjama Boys’ featured loungewear on a whole new level.

There’s also the sports guy.

While other fashion houses change creative directors frequently, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana hit the 40-year mark in 2025.

“Many brands today lose completely their identity”.

This show proves they have stayed true to their original fashion roots.
