UNION SQUARE—Inspired by the Venetian and Byzantine mosaics of the twelfth-century cathedral in the city of Monreale (in the words of the D&G press team), the Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2013 Collection will be on preview this Friday from 10am to 4pm at Neiman Marcus. Although some of the elaborate prints may appear difficult to wear, the line's tweeds and houndstooths will certainly look magnificent against an SF fall backdrop. [Racked Inbox]
