Dolce & Gabbana Turns Pajamas into High Fashion for Spring/Summer 2026

With its Spring/Summer 2026 collection titled “Pyjama Boys,” Dolce & Gabbana redefines modern masculinity by spotlighting an unexpected hero: the pajama. Far from a gimmick, the choice is a thoughtful nod to the house’s ‘90s archives and enduring DNA—reimagined through a relaxed yet impeccably tailored lens. The result is a collection that aligns seamlessly with today’s shift toward comfort-driven, daywear-focused dressing.

The Relaxed Chic of Italian Pajamas

Rendered in airy cotton jacquard with subtle vertical stripes, Dolce & Gabbana’s pajamas break away from their nighttime roots to embody a crumpled, effortlessly chic aesthetic. The palette remains understated yet elevated—think beige, cream, light blue, green, brown, and black—punctuated by playful touches of polka dots and leopard print for a hint of irony. Silhouettes are loose and deconstructed, with wide-leg trousers, oversized shirts, soft tailoring, and '80s-inspired leather pieces offering a relaxed, reimagined vision of masculinity. Even the knitwear echoes this new ethos, crafted in lightweight textures with generous proportions that favor comfort and fluidity.

Between day and night, the pyjama changes its look for Dolce & Gabbana

The eveningwear offering builds upon the same relaxed foundation, elevated with luminous hand-applied embroideries in stones and crystals that blend seamlessly with the signature stripes—striking a balance between sophistication and effortless ease. Accessories further define the collection’s aesthetic: cameo brooches, collar pins, beaded rosaries, colored stone necklaces, and vintage-style sunglasses infuse each look with a retro charm that still feels unmistakably modern.

Oversized Sicily totes, the newly introduced Vittoria bags, and fabric-matched clutches expand the styling potential, while footwear underscores the laid-back elegance—think minimalist sneakers, terry-cloth slippers, and fur-free slides that serve as quiet yet intentional statements.
