Kendall Jenner to Priyanka Chopra: Celebs who looked STUNNING in Designer of the week: Dolce & Gabbana outfits
With a lot of controversies surrounding them, take a look at all the celebrities who stunned in Dolce & Gabbana.
Founded by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, the Italian luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana has come a long way since it was founded back in 1985.
The brand is said to have been born when the two designers met in a club in Milan and decided to work together in 1983, only to present their first collection two years later. Since then, the brand has diverged into two different lines, D&G and Dolce&Gabbana. While D&G targeted a younger audience and specialised in luxury watches and clothing, this line was discontinued in 2011 so the designers could focus on the main line.

Since then, the DG logo has reached iconic status with the brand delving into accessories, jewellery, cosmetics and more. The designer duo is known for their eclectic creations that also have a boho touch to them. Their collections have varied from edgy pieces like corsets, outfits with fastenings, ruched and sheer dresses and more, to more feminine numbers including embellishments, lots of tulle and extravagant attire.
The duo has also stepped out from the fashion scene to author books and has more than 20 books co-authored by Domenico and Steffano together. The proceeds of these books mostly go to charity.

Dolce & Gabbana, like any big luxury fashion house, has also seen its fair share of controversy. They openly spoke about how they opposed gay adoption and mentioned that the only family is that of a "traditional one." The duo faced backlash from not only social media users but numerous celebrities as well with #BoycottDolceGabbana trending on Twitter. After protestors called for an international boycott, the designer duo was forced to apologise for their remarks.

In 2018, the Italian fashion house faced backlash again for featuring a Chinese model in a series, where the model's eyes were intentionally narrowed. The video that was released on all of the brand's social media portals including Instagram, Facebook and Twitter, saw the model accessorised in pieces and attempting to use chopsticks to eat Italian food. The brand was called out for being racist. Stefano Gabbana then took things further by releasing a video on his personal Instagram handle where he called China "Ignorant and dirty smelling mafia," for the backlash he received and also called it the "Country of shit." After issuing a statement that his and the brand's accounts were hacked, both Domenico and Steffano issued an apology to the country but a number of Chinese brand ambassadors cut ties with the luxury fashion house.
