The rumours are true! The casts of Dolce & Gabbana Spring Summer 2012 advertising campaign are all Italian: actress Monica Bellucci and top model Bianca Balti photographed by Giampaolo Sgura and accompanied by the current campaign boy of Givenchy, Simone Nobili.

Mariano Vivanco who landed his first Dolce & Gabbana mainline campaign slot this season, just like Giampaolo Sgura, photographed Italian actors for the brand’s Menswear collection.

These shots have all the right ingredients to represent the values of Italy: there is the joy of a sunny afternoon at the seaside, the playfulness of a large family reunited, tradition, love, passion.

The core of these powerful, intense photographs is the Italian family, majestically interpreted by the three renowned Italian models: the strong bond between the protagonists, the connection to each other, the love shared in moments of daily life is beautifully represented like old family photographs with a cinematic quality.
