Dominnico sharpened its signature codes with a collection, “Supernova,” that had Madonna as a key reference point. “Her early-2000s looks led me to Tom Ford’s work at Gucci, and Studio 54,” said creative director Domingo Rodríguez Lázaro.
That meeting point between sophistication and pop culture was reworked through a contemporary lens that felt true to the brand. Across 18 looks, bomber jackets were paired with corsets and cargo-pocket miniskirts. Leather and recycled Tibetan fur added texture, while the palette moved between soft pastels, aqua, pink, and sharp black-and-white contrasts. “Technology runs through the whole collection, becoming part of the clothes in a way that feels functional and relevant to everyday life,” said Lázaro.
The collection reflected different sides of the same woman. One day it’s pinstripes; the next, a satin maxi skirt brings out a more sensual side. The pieces were practical, comfortable, and polished. Satin contributed fluidity and a sense of luxury, while leather and more structured fabrics added contrast. Utility belts, belt bags, deconstructed pieces, and pinstripes rounded out the collection.
The silhouettes felt cleaner and more refined; there were pieces that haven’t been featured heavily in past collections, including pencil skirts, full-length pants, vests, and capris. “In the end, the variety gives you the freedom to find the version of the brand that feels most like you, while still staying true to our pop references and maximalist spirit,” said the designer.
There was still plenty of playfulness. Sheer linings were left visible, others extended past the garment, and jackets were deconstructed. Dominnico may be maturing, but it’s not losing its sense of fun.
