Once dubbed the ‘Gilbert and George of Italian fashion’ Dolce & Gabbana gave their fashion interests a musical turn in 1996 by recording their own single in which they atoned the words ‘D&G is love’ over a techno beat.
Newer to the design game than other heavyweight Italian fashion houses such as Armani and Versace the pair acknowledged that luck has played its part in their resounding success. They were so successful that they announced they would retire at the age of 40 – a promise they did not keep.
Dolce Gabbana is famous for its bold, charismatic designs. And while the D&G label is known around the world, Dolce & Gabbana fragrances are equally beloved by its fans. Combined with market-leading scents, helping to mint new stars has always been part of the plan—and the designers never forget that.
