Dolce & Gabbana Launches Sicilian Lace Makeup Collection for Fall 2010

Dolce & Gabbana is known for mixing feminine sensuality with luxury, and the Italian brand's new Sicilian Lace beauty collection is no exception.

The launch features a lipstick, gloss, shadow quad, limited edition bronzer and nail lacquer in the gauziest of sun-touched bisque nudes that we could easily see screen siren Sophia Loren pulling off.

The inspiration for the color story is the luxury label's long-time signature use of lace in its fashion collections. Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana have said that they believe lace captures the essence of glamour and modern femininity.

Makeup artist and Dolce & Gabbana beauty collaborator Pat McGrath says the shades reflect the beauty of Sicily's sandy beaches.

"It's a look that's so fresh, barely there yet so sexy -- and most impressive, the palette is truly timeless, which is what makes a make up collection genuinely classic," says McGrath.

(Will McGrath be stocking her new beauty loves in the cosmetic bag she recently designed for LeSportSac?)

While all the sleekly gold-packaged items are like eye candy for the beauty junkie, our top pick is the bronzer -- which swirls patina and praline shades into a pretty floral design that will appear universally flattering on all skin tones.

The nude color quad is the most steeply-priced of the group at $59, but the lip products reign in at $30, the nail lacquer at $20, and the bronzer at $49. The goodies will all be available starting mid-August at select Saks Fifth Avenue stores.

And to see how a celebrity recently rocked Dolce & Gabbana makeup, check out Scarlett Johansson's, recent appearance at the MTV Movie Awards.

The blonde bombshell has fronted the brand since 2009, and we're more than just a little jealous of the free goods we imagine she must score.

And speaking of Sicilian lace, Madonna is wrapped up in it in the Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2010 ad campaign.

I've never used a single one of their products, but I love the color of the bronzer. And as long as it's not made in China, I would consider giving it a try.

What a gimmick! Lace makeup. They made a design stamp in the makeup...that's all. Buy bronzer at the drugstore. It does the same thing. Silly women pay for a name. I'll spend my money on more important things. Geesh.
If they told you it had goat's pee in it to make you look fab you idiots would buy it.

I totally agree with Olivia and strangedc. I wonder how many people really spend this kind of money, just so they can show off the D&G logo. Maybe they need something to feel better about themselves...*poor* isn't always about money, ya know?
