Completed article: History of Dolce & Gabbana _ Revision
Dolce & Gabbana is an Italian fashion brand.
This is the first time that I’ve seen the brand name.
Although it started out as an apparel brand, it is now involved in a wide range of items such as shoes and perfumes.
This time, I will introduce the history of such a dolgaba.
Establishment
Dolce & Gabbana is a brand that was born by two designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. The history of the company began when the two met in a design studio in Milan. They began to co-found a design consultancy business, and in 1982, they set up an office in Milan, and two years later, they opened their first collection.
Then, in 1985, they launched “Dolce & Gabbana”.
The following year, he presented his second collection and opened his first store. He began his journey as a top designer.
In 1989, he held a fashion show in Tokyo. In 1989, he held a fashion show in Tokyo and expanded his line by introducing lingerie and beachwear designs.
From 1990 onwards, he set up a men’s line and launched a series of new collections.
The success of the first collection was the catalyst for the growth of the brand.
The leap of the brand
The period after 1990 was a time of rapid growth for the brand. This was triggered by the Cannes International Film Festival held in 1990.
At the screening of “In Bed with Madonna,” Madonna wore an outfit adorned with dollar signs.
The brand’s name recognition increased dramatically when a world-famous star wore it. Madonna and I deepened our relationship and will continue to work together.
The brand also launched a perfume in 1992, Dolce & Gabbana Parfum, which won the Best Fragrance Award at the Parfum Academy the following year.
A perfume launched in 1995 also received an award, and the momentum of Dolgabana continues unabated.
In 1994, the company launched its second line, “D&G”. In 1994, the company launched its second line, “D&G,” a line aimed at young people, and took progressive steps such as holding fashion shows only on the Internet.
In 1996 and 1997, D&G won the top prize in an international fashion magazine. The brand continued to grow at a rapid pace.
At the peak of the brand
Dolce & Gabbana’s name became known all over the world as the brand was patronized by celebrities such as Madonna, Beyonce, and Whitney Houston.
Dolce & Gabbana has also been active in fields other than fashion, designing uniforms for the Italian soccer club AC Milan and cell phones.
In 2003, he was named Men of the Year by GQ magazine, the world’s leading fashion magazine. In 2003, he was named Men of the Year by the international fashion magazine GQ magazine, and the following year, he won the Best International Designer award from ELLE, which was a worldwide recognition of his achievements as a designer.
The second line was discontinued in 2012, but was later merged with the main line, and the two designers’ sensibilities are still evident in their collections.
Unique style
The reason why this young brand established in 1985 has been so successful worldwide is because of its unique design style.
It does not just follow trends, nor does it do anything out of the ordinary. It is this exquisite balance that has captivated fans.
Styles change all the time, but there is one common root that has remained unchanged throughout the ages.
That is the island of Sicily in Italy.
Since B.C., Sicily has been a place where various cultures have mingled. The roots of our designs are based on the fact that we have experienced these cultures firsthand.
While being inspired by the past, we do not just imitate it. Our designs are characterized by a spirit of exploration.
Their traditional and contemporary fashion has enthralled fans around the world, both men and women.
Two designers
The founders, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, were opposites in many ways.
Dolce was born in the Italian countryside and had an introverted personality. Gabbana was from the big city of Milan and was a social butterfly. Although they were born and raised differently, they had a great working relationship.
Gabbana was younger than Dolce, so he had more energy and liked wild and flamboyant designs. Dolce, on the other hand, preferred a refined and relaxed atmosphere with finely tuned details.
Although they were polar opposites, they gradually developed trust and became partners in both public and private life.
Same-sex partners are very common in the fashion industry.
Relationship with Madonna
My relationship with Madonna began at the Cannes Film Festival in 1990. We designed the dress that Madonna wore at the screening of her film. The partnership began after the dress received international acclaim and Madonna herself fell in love with it.
Madonna designed more than 1,500 outfits for her international tours in 1993 and 2001, and in 2010, she modeled for the brand’s official campaign and released collaborative sunglasses. In 2010, Madonna was the model for the brand’s official campaign, and a collaborative pair of sunglasses was released, with the “M” for Madonna engraved on the arm.
A good relationship between the two companies has continued from the beginning to the present.
Various collaborations
Dolce & Gabbana has been collaborating with various brands. This is not limited to the fashion industry.
The two are known for their love of soccer, and have written a book for soccer players called “Calcio”. They donated all the proceeds to a charity organization.
He was also in charge of designing the uniforms for AC Milan and the suits for the English team, Chelsea. His suits based on Chelsea’s team color, blue, became a favorite among soccer fans.
In 2004, he collaborated with the automobile manufacturer Citroën.
In 2004, he collaborated with the automobile manufacturer Citroën to create the “Citroën C3 & C3Pluriel D&G”. It is unusual for a fashion designer to be in charge of car design.
The car was a limited edition, with only 1,500 units produced in Italy.
In 2006, the company sold a model in collaboration with cell phone manufacturer Motorola. It was a gorgeous gold and silver handset. It was a luxurious gold and silver handset, probably in accordance with the custom of seeking status in cell phones overseas.
In 2010, the company collaborated with the Italian brewery Martini.
Vermouth in a golden bottle was born.
As a brand that is active not only in fashion but also in various other fields, it continues to create fans all over the world.
About Perfume
Dolce & Gabbana became a household name in Japan with the song “Perfume”.
It was in 1992 that the first perfume was created. Since then, many products have been released.
What are some of the most famous perfumes?
The most famous one is “Light Blue”.
It is one of the best-selling perfumes in the brand’s history. In 2016, 15 years after its release, it was inducted into the Fifi Awards, the Oscars of the perfume world.
The fruity scent is a mixture of green apple and floral scents and is easy to use for both men and women. Initially, it was marketed for women, but after its release, it became more popular among men.
One of the reasons for its popularity was its affordable price, in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 yen, which made it easy for the younger generation to afford.
Today, there are many variations of dollargab perfumes available. You may be able to find a scent that suits your taste.
Summary
Founded in 1985, Dolce & Gabbana is still a young brand that has gained worldwide popularity due to the unique designs of its two designers and the fact that it has been patronized by celebrities.
By actively collaborating with industries other than apparel, the brand has become known even to those who are not interested in fashion.
I am sure that they will continue to entertain their fans with their sophisticated designs.
