Dolce&Gabbana sells ready made clothes and is a brand based in Legnano, Milan. It was launched in 1985 by two designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. In 1980, both were working in the same workshop in Venice. By 1982, they began working together to carve a niche for themselves in the fashion world.
They launched their brand Dolce&Gabbana in 1985. Their first launch had a menswear collection and they opened another shop in Milan for women. The stars smiled, when Madonna, constantly on the lookout for new trends came across their outlet. It was the black bra with sequins that Madonna wore on the Girlie Show tour in 1993, which helped her get friendly with the two famous Italians, and Dolce and Gabbana were truly inspired by this.
The brand Dolce&Gabbana has been home to a couple of the most talented and most prolific designers of Italian fashion in recent years. Domenico Dolce was born in Polizzi Generosa in 1958 and Stefano Gabbana was born in Milan in 1962. During their studies, Gabbana studied extensive graphic designs. However, Dolce set foot into the fashion world when studying in Venice and working in the small cottage industry of clothing. Both designers were able to interpret and impose their sensual and unique style on the world.
These designers are the most wanted men of Hollywood. They are the designers for stars like Madonna, Monica Bellucci, Isabella Rossellini, Kylie Minogue, Victoria Beckham and Angelina Jolie.
One can see their complementarity through their logo, which is now legendary in the fashion world. The logo has been given its aesthetic touch by both designers. The button shows Gabbana's touch, who studied graphic design, and Dolce's touch can be seen with the '&' that brings harmony to the name. The lack of space between the names is the key stylistic trademark.
With the creation of the D & G indicated that their influences were "Armani for discipline, Alaia for madness , Chanel couture for his concept and Jean-Paul Gaultier for creativity."
They offer the public a world of sensations, traditions, culture, and "méditerranéité." Thus, it is in their respective county town Milan and Sicily that Dolce & Gabbana imagine their fabulous collections to be.
Indeed, Milan, one of the capitals of fashion has a favorable climate for the creation and stylistic innovation. The organization of companies specializing in various stages of textile production in industrial districts promote competitiveness and innovation capacity. The close cooperation established between the designers and manufacturers of fabrics, will promote the explosion of Italian fashion, full of quality and elegance.
