The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Molly Sims

FabSugar — Mon, 04 May 2009 19:49:15 -0700

There's a way to stand out without being weird, and I think Molly Sims nailed that tonight. Every corner of her gold Dolce & Gabbana dress has a fun detail and her jewels are oh-so colorful. Do you approve?

Fab Flash: Gisele is Still Number One

BellaSugar — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 10:17:44 -0800

IMG Models have confirmed that uber gorgeous super model Gisele Bündchen will walk only one runway at Milan Fashion Week. It will be next Thursday for the Fall 2007 Dolce & Gabbana show. This is the first show she has walked for them since Spring 2003. Her spokesperson said:

“Gisele has a fragrance with Dolce and is doing their show exclusively in Milan next week.”

Oooh, sounds like an upcoming Beauty Byte to me! The fragrance referred to is The One by Dolce & Gabbana , and will be launched in the U.S. this summer. No fair - it has already been available in Europe for months!

The One features the Brazilian beauty in both print and television ads. This is the first new fragrance launched by the Italian duo since their licensing deal with Proctor & Gamble Prestige Products in December 2005.

We can't wait to see the gazelle-like Gisele dressed in Dolce at the show on Thursday. At least we know she'll smell great!

The Grammys Red Carpet: Hilary Duff

Hilary Duff looks good, but I have to say that I am just not a fan of this particular dark look on her. She sure seems to be trying hard to drop that bubblegum pop star image. Her petite frame however does look fab in this lacy and racy Dolce & Gabbana dress. How do you feel about her new image?

2010 Spring Milan Fashion Week: Dolce & Gabbana

FabSugar — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 12:30:22 -0700

It was all about passion and romance at Dolce & Gabbana's Spring showing at Milan Fashion Week. Showing utmost creative capability, the designers made a heavenly mix of sexy menswear-inspired suits, lace dresses, floral-printed separates, blouson shorts, and tiered frocks. "[The collection] is sexy, but not too sexy. . . . We're talking about sensuality," said Domenico Dolce. And that they did via bold, leopard prints, scintillating corsets, and a slick play on see-through dressing via black netting and mesh.

There was no limit to their imagination - the duo drew influences spanning from Madonna to Sicily - and created something for everyone. Classic, sophisticated gals will undoubtedly immerse themselves in Dolce & Gabbana's vintage white-lace dresses; hip darlings can revel in their floral and animal printed pieces; and sporty minimalists can celebrate in their selection of tailored suits. The emerging odd trend of the season - pantless one-pieces - were prominent and some of my favorite for Spring thus far. Bravi Domenico and Stefano!

Dolce and Gabbana Slashes Prices (!)

FabSugar — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 14:00:22 -0700

Dolce and Gabbana customers, get ready for something major: 10 to 20 percent lower retail prices for both the main and D&G lines. The Italian designing duo has slashed its prices because of the current economic state. "In this moment of uncertainty, people spend more willingly on travel or spas rather than on a new dress. We want to work for the final consumer," Gabbana said.

But fret not, the quality of the clothes won't be sacrificed. Instead of hundreds of fabrics, the designers are now using dozens. Plus, constructions will be simpler, and alternative stitching techniques will be used. According to Dolce, "This is the only way to save the market and our companies. It’s time to turn the page." Agreed.

Fab Flash: Bundchen by Dolce & Gabbana

FabSugar — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 11:30:22 -0800

It looks like Kate Moss may have opened the floodgates for supermodels designing clothes: Gisele is set to design a range of clothing with Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.

Although she has been prodded by various offers to design in the past, Gisele stuck to modeling and endorsing until Dolce & Gabbana gave her an offer she couldn't refuse. The line, Bundchen by Dolce & Gabbana, is set to unveil next Spring. I wonder if it will include any bikinis . . .

Celeb Style: Scarlett Johansson

FabSugar — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 12:00:22 -0700

Dolce and Gabbana's makeup muse did some promoting at Selfridges department store in London earlier today. She usually plays up her sex-kitten persona, but here she opted for a ladylike look by Dolce and Gabbana. The pretty floral blouse is tempered by a long and lean pencil skirt and finished with a pair of nude peep-toe pumps. But it wouldn't be Scarlett without some sexy - her red lips help achieve just that.

Dolce & Gabbana Summer Flowers Silk Top - $679.32	Tulip pencil skirt - $59.00
Style&co. Shoes, Celine Suede Peep Toe Pumps - $59.00	Crislu "royal crown" cz ring - $75.00
Rose Studs - $25.00	Christopher Kon 218 Clutch - $150.00

Fab Ad: Dolce and Gabbana Women's Fall '09

FabSugar — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 14:00:22 -0700

So we weren't impressed with Dolce and Gabbana's sporty Fall men's campaign. Moving on. Let's join the sultry Mariacarla Boscono, Heidi Mount, and Edita Vilkeviciute, in Vegas! Also shot by Steven Klein, the blue-hued ads depict the lionesses lounging across poker tables in the house's dramatic shoulderific Fall offerings. This image is my favorite, with the shaggy purple abominable coats. There's also Mariacarla in a white one - dig the surreal headgear. Vegas's bling and gaud rarely serve as backdrop for ads, what do you think of Dolce and Gabbana's high-fashion gamble?

Milan Fashion Week, Spring 2008: Dolce & Gabbana

FabSugar — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 11:30:33 -0700

A common theme that I'm finding with Milan Fashion Week is that designers, like Roberto Cavalli, are expanding their horizons and delving into new territories. Such is the case for Dolce & Gabbana's Spring collection.

Dolce ads are vulgar and highly sexual, so it was surprising to see that their latest collection is filled with modest, almost matronly pieces. There are a bevy of full skirts, button down blouses, boat neck dress (a la Audrey Hepburn), tulip dresses, and lots of drama-filled, Zac Posen-esque gowns with voluminous trains and lots of ruching. The hues were also subtle, for Dolce, - black, white, green, mustard yellow, purple - with bouts of fuchsia and red.

What stood out is the upholstery-like patterns found on some of the dresses. They're vintage-inspired, regal and textured. Rather un-Dolce & Gabbana but very much appreciated.
