The dark side of Dolce & Gabbana: Kardashians pocket millions from brand despite past controversies
Daily MailAll is strife once more in the noble house of Kardashian. Worse still, Kim appeared to escalate matters further at the weekend when she apparently copied one of her sister’s Dolce & Gabbana wedding outfits – a dramatic black corset dress with veil. It might seem puzzling that a company of D&G’s standing should be willing to hitch its fortunes to the trashy Kardashian wagon.. After all, it was only in 2018 that Stefano Gabbana reportedly responded to an online photo of the Kardashians by commenting, ‘The most cheap people in the world’. The designers caused another stir in Milan when they sent their all-white models down the runway for their 2013 Spring/Summer collection wearing headscarves and large earrings featuring cartoonish, colonial-style ‘Blackamoor’ images of black women. In 2017, D&G added misogyny to their rap sheet when Gabbana admitted he’d been one of those who ‘body shamed’ pop star Lady Gaga after she exposed her bare midriff while performing at the Superbowl.
