Carretto-Print Triangle bikini Multicolour

Carretto is where Dolce & Gabbana stops pretending it is in the mood for restraint. The triangle bikini has gathered, unwired cups, a hook fastening at the back and a fixed thong bottom with lace end caps. The print will not land in exactly the same place on every piece, which is part of the brand’s Handmade approach. It makes sense here because the pattern is the entire point.

The one-shoulder chiffon dress gives that same print much more room. A scarf covers the right shoulder and the full skirt is lightly gathered, so the fabric can move without the dress becoming bulky. This is our favourite Carretto piece of the two. The bikini is fun, but the dress has a clearer shape and lets the print unfold across a bigger surface. It is bright, unapologetic and recognisably Dolce & Gabbana.
