D&G

Bow Tank

Italian designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana first met in 1980 while assisting at the same atelier in Milan. Two years later, they established one of the most well-known fashion houses. Since the debut of Dolce & Gabbana's first full collection in 1986, the designers have won international acclaim for their men's and women's clothing, a style that balances tradition with inner allure. The brand continually entertains a client list that includes Madonna, Nicole Kidman, Scarlett Johansson, and Naomi Campbell, among many other familiar names. Dolce and Gabbana have also opened up boutiques, published a host of fashion books, designed eyewear collections, and in 1994 the duo introduced D&G, a diffusion line featuring more casual elements with clothing that sets trends and finds inspiration in the urban landscape.
