But this time Dolce &amp; Gabbana returned to professional models.The collection, rich and opulent as usual by Dolce &amp; Gabbana, featured church-influenced designs such as a big black cape draped over a white t-shirt, a priest collar combined with an elegant damasked tuxedo and a cassock-looking dress with red finishes paired with high-heeled red sandals.<div class="embed-wrap"><figure data-feedback="fb:likes,fb:comments"><img src="https://sa.kapamilya.com/absnews/abscbnnews/media/2018/life/02/26/fashion.jpg"/><figcaption>A model presents a creation from the Dolce &amp; Gabbana Autumn/Winter 2018 women&#x27;s collection during Milan Fashion Week.
