VOIR TRAVEL / STYLE
Welcome to the ultimate Mediterranean fantasy — where fashion meets folklore, sea meets style, and luxury becomes a living experience.
This summer, Dolce&Gabbana returns to the shores of Costa Smeralda with a vibrant creative takeover at the legendary Hotel Cala di Volpe, transforming one of Italy’s most exclusive hideaways into a fully immersive DG Resort experience.
Set against the emerald coastline of Sardinia, Cala di Volpe — the sculptural masterpiece by architect Jacques Couëlle — is more than a hotel. It’s a cultural icon. And now, under the artistic direction of Dolce&Gabbana, it’s been reimagined into a multisensory playground of Sicilian tradition, color, and couture-level craftsmanship.
The Poolside Reimagined
At the heart of the resort’s transformation is its sweeping saltwater pool — one of the largest in Europe — now cloaked in Dolce&Gabbana’s signature Sicilian Cart motif. Think hand-painted vases, artisan-patterned cabanas, and plush cotton towels that feel more like runway pieces than poolside essentials. It’s a love letter to heritage, art, and the dolce vita.
Atrium Bar, But Make It Couture
For the first time ever, the iconic Atrium Bar — a favorite of the global style set and one of the most photographed spots in the Med — gets the Dolce touch. A moody oasis framed by organic arches, it’s been transformed into a glamour-charged hideaway that’s equal parts retro Riviera and modern Italian fantasy. Expect sea views, chic spritzes, and couture conversations under the stars.
Limited-Edition Pop-Up
Of course, no DG takeover would be complete without a limited-time pop-up boutique, where a curated selection of high-summer ready-to-wear and accessories awaits. From statement eyewear to silk shirts made for sun-soaked strolls, the capsule blends timeless Italian elegance with Sardinia’s natural magic.
Cultural, Curated, Coastal
This is not just a hotel partnership — it’s an art installation. A fashion experience. A celebration of Italy’s deep connection to storytelling, ornamentation, and pleasure. As Dolce&Gabbana continues to expand into lifestyle, beauty, and global resort design, this Cala di Volpe takeover solidifies their status as curators of cultural luxury.
When in Sardinia…
If you’re lucky enough to find yourself on the Costa Smeralda this summer, a visit to the DG Resort at Cala di Volpe isn’t just recommended — it’s essential. Prepare for a visual journey. A stylistic pilgrimage. A moment where fashion stops time. This year, the magic reaches new heights as Jennifer Lopez has just been announced as the star of their annual August Gala concert.
Because Dolce&Gabbana doesn’t just design clothes.
They design worlds.
