The Dolce & Gabbana Boys Carretto Print Swim Shorts are a designer boys' swimwear style made in Italy from 100% polyester, featuring the brand's bold Sicilian Carretto motif on a blue base. Available in sizes 3 to 14 Years, they're built for holidays, pool days and beach trips where a plain pair of swim shorts simply won't cut it.
The Carretto print — inspired by the painted horse-drawn carts of Sicily — is one of Dolce & Gabbana's most recognisable signatures. On swim shorts, it reads as confident and colourful without being garish. The blue base keeps the overall look grounded and easy to style. Part of the AW2026 Holiday Shop collection, these are designed for boys who want to make an impression at the pool or on the beach.
Buying Advice
Dolce & Gabbana Kids swimwear follows Italian sizing, which can run slightly narrower and shorter in the leg than UK equivalents. If your son is between sizes or has a longer torso, sizing up is a sensible call. The Carretto print is bold, so these shorts pair best with a plain rash vest or T-shirt on top — white, navy or a solid blue all work well. They're also a strong choice as a holiday gift, particularly for boys aged 6 and up who have a sense of their own style.
