Dolce & Gabbana

Dolce & Gabbana eyewear, a fashion icon

Dolce & Gabbana is an Italian firm founded in 1985 in the city of Milan, where its two founders met: the couturier Domenico Dolce and graphic designer Stefano Gabbana. Their union is the best representation of the renewal of the “made in Italy” style. Today, the two of them remain in full control of the maison: “Our freedom and independence are priceless”.

The first Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses was launched almost ten years after its founding, as a fundamental piece to be part of its accessories collection. This first Eyewear collection published in 1994 was inspired by urban landscapes and the society of the big cities, filling these frames with the strength of the youngest.

Since its beginnings, D&G has been linked to the world of art, music and Hollywood. Proof of this are the important figures who have worn their designs, including Madonna, one of its star ambassadors who even came to design entire collections of glasses, Jennifer Lopez, Anna Wintour and Sophia Loren.

A global brand inspired in Sicily

Today Dolce & Gabbana is one of the best-known fashion brands in the world, but its history, its success and its designs will always be linked to Italy and, specifically, to Domenico Dolce's hometown: Sicily.

It could be said that the essence of the brand was born inspired by the thrift store called Bohemia, with everything that can be bought and admired in this type of vintage store. Although the one that remains a source of inspiration today is the Italian cinema of the 40s, from where they make the famous animal prints of strong colors and emblems of Dolce & Gabbana, called on several occasions as “haute hippy dom”.

This inspiration in the Sicilian city dates to the fourth collection launched by D&G and with which they managed to impact the entire Italian fashion industry. The entire launch campaign was filmed in Sicily itself by Fernando Scianna and with clear references to the Italian cinema of the 40s.

The highlight of this Sicily-inspired collection was the one known as “The Sicilian Dress”, so named by the Italian press and identified in 2012 by author Hal Rubenstein as one of the most important garments in history. “The Sicilian Dress is the essence of Dolce & Gabbana, the sartorial reference point of the brand.”

Nods to Sicily and the baroque style continue to take center stage in recent collections of its sunglasses, filling the frames with baroque prints in bright colors. Even children's eyewear has been infected with this Dolce & Gabbana style,

Dolce & Gabbana became a global brand thanks to the success of its designs for Madonna, which the singer wore during her 2001 international “Drowned World Tour”. This recognition was consolidated during the early 2000s by dressing Beyonce, Whitney Houston or Kylie Minogue.

Luxury selection of D&G Eyewear for an unmistakably sophisticated style

If there is something that defines this Italian maison is its tireless search for new designs, new collaborations and a continuous reinvention that has catapulted them to international success.

Dolce & Gabbana specializes in luxury goods, starting with fashion and extending to complete collections of accessories such as sunglasses, optical frames, watches, makeup and perfumes.

At the end of the 90s we know the first selection of luxury eyewear D & G designed for people with a luxurious and sophisticated style, but very focused on young people and the strength they have. During all these years they have launched collections for all tastes, with sunglasses designs and more sober frames to those clearly inspired by Sicily with its iconic “made in Italy” print.

Dolce & Gabbana glasses, a must-have accessory in Hollywood

Dolce & Gabbana's success cannot be understood without its collaborations with great Hollywood artists. Starting with Madonna, who began (redundancy aside) wearing her iconic corset in the 90s and ended up being a friend, ambassador and designer of Dolce & Gabbana glasses.

Following by the diva Sophia Loren who besides being the golden muse of cinema is also the 100% Dolce & Gabbana woman of Italian style. Others who also wore D&G designs and glasses were Jennifer Lopez or Anna Wintour.

Dolce & Gabbana is also closely linked to pop culture thanks, again, to the figure of Madonna or Kylie Minogue. And another example we have in the iconic series Sex and the City, where in one of its episodes, the protagonist, Carrie Bradshaw, is invited to parade with one of his trench coats and ends up starring in one of the moments.
