...disposable. What does the well-made, kind of nice stuff in the middle mean anymore?" Not so much when it comes to the Dolce & Gabbana customer. "When we offer a shoe in leather and also in snake or eel, the first to sell will be the most expensive," says Stefano Gabbana, whose idea of casual is jeans trimmed with astrakhan fur.

On other runways in Paris and Milan last month, designers were equally inspired by the slightly bohemian '60s look that Saint Laurent made famous. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana took their design cues from a recent trip to Botswana, filling their latest collection with python-trimmed safari looks. And for Italian sportswear giant MaxMara, the cornerstone of the show was a crisp khaki safari jacket shown over a pencil skirt...
