This week Dolce & Gabbana opened a new boutique in the grand city of Moscow, the capital of Russia, at Tretyakovsky Proezd 2, just a few steps from the Bolshoi theatre and the Red Square. The store is located in a pre-Revolutionary building, which still commands the grandeur of Ztarsist Russia.  And for the launch Dolce&Gabbana has created a capsule collection exclusively for the Russian location to be sold to the elegant Muscovite clientele.

The store is divided over four floors with a total area of 1100 square meters and features the women’s collection, men’s collection, watches and jewellery, as well as the Martini Bar, on top floor.

The original features of the building, like the stuccos, columns and decorations are merged with Italian craftsmanship, including a bronze and wrought iron panoramic lift and an imposing decorated dome which is more than 10 meters high.

The lucky ladies in Moscow will be treated to an exclusive Dolce&Gabbana capsule collection of sumptuous evening wear. Below are the original sketches of what debuted.
