Wherever he goes, no matter what he does, you can guarantee that all eyes will be on David Gandy. He commands all attention. A super fan, who followed his every move during the DGFW13 Men's Fashion Show, wants to know straight from Swide's sources if the man is still with Dolce&Gabbana. Well, of course he is… let's see how. ]]> Sun, 22 Jan 2012 16:51:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2012/1/22 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2012/1/22
How can I possibly get the new SS12 collection? The customers of my mini-laundrette have gone ballistic over onions. ]]> Sat, 05 Nov 2011 16:20:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/11/5 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/11/5
To this kind of e-mail one doesn't know how to reply. Are you a woman? Or just a man from a sexually disabled country. The mini-laundrette answers. ]]> Sun, 16 Oct 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/italian-men/2011/10/16 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/italian-men/2011/10/16
Some people are ready to pay “any money” to get anything remotely related to fashion. And when someone is so desperate to find whatever mask they were wearing on Bob Sinclair's video... what can a mini-laundrette do? ]]> Sun, 09 Oct 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-glitter-and-bob-sinclair/2011/10/9 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-glitter-and-bob-sinclair/2011/10/9
In the mood for “I thought I had seen it all”, I must say “but I haven't done it all”. In the land of desperate single women fighting on the dating scene, fans ask wardrobe tricks that could seduce even a dead man. ]]> Sun, 02 Oct 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dating-lessons-fan-mail/2011/10/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dating-lessons-fan-mail/2011/10/2
Time to do some dirty laundry action. Everyone has skeletons in their closets, we have bloggers who have seen the light. Meaning they stood under their own safety torch that works with batteries. ]]> Sun, 18 Sep 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/blogger-wannabes-fan-mail/2011/9/18 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/blogger-wannabes-fan-mail/2011/9/18
What happens when someone from Swide forgets her bikini in the office? Isn't it SO unfair to work for the sexiest brand and not be able to show it on the beach? ]]> Sun, 28 Aug 2011 19:13:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-2-acelya-bikini/2011/8/28 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-2-acelya-bikini/2011/8/28
The fashion rumor is out, we are living in overcrowded offices.

One of our readers ask, after having seen a post on Madonna Scrapbook, where he can get Dolce&Gabbana's Madonna book. ]]> Wed, 11 May 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/madonna-book-by-dolce-gabbana/2011/5/11 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/madonna-book-by-dolce-gabbana/2011/5/11

No need to kill yourself over what next season might bring. Professor X from NewBumbleFin University warns against a major threat: climate change. Don't laugh, you might need to shed some skin, not pounds. ]]> Sat, 16 Apr 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/4/16 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/4/16
A mother in distress accompanied her daughter to the Justin Bieber "outside fans" party.

Sicilian fishermen are feeling a bit left out. All those references to the sea, to fishing, to sun-tanned clothes... ]]> Sun, 03 Apr 2011 01:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/4/3 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry/2011/4/3
Youth angst always creates some bizarre hang ups. In fashion we are open to most of them. However, even certain requests top the list. ]]> Sat, 19 Mar 2011 13:01:10 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-spring/2011/3/19 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-spring/2011/3/19
So not every dream is possible, definitely can't build a hotel overnight. But if we keep wishing for it maybe it will appear? ]]> Sat, 19 Feb 2011 01:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-hotels/2011/2/19 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-hotels/2011/2/19
We have been invaded by models' requests: they all seem to think we are running a parallel modeling agency. You need a duplicate of Sam Webb, Noah Mills, River Viiperi...? At least designers won't be fighting over them during the next shows. ]]> Sat, 05 Feb 2011 01:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-models/2011/2/5 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-models/2011/2/5
The readers ask, apparently after seeing some Italian designers migrating to Paris for Couture, they are wondering why Dolce&Gabbana doesn't do the same. ]]> Sat, 22 Jan 2011 01:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-couture/2011/1/22 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/dirty-laundry-couture/2011/1/22

Inspiration comes in many unexpected ways to the lovely people filling our inbox this week: we've got dogwalkers, potential buyers of designer Easter eggs and... well, there is also this e-mail from HR which is substantially less "lovely". ]]> Thu, 01 Apr 2010 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/A-case-of-the-puppy-love/2010/4/1 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/A-case-of-the-puppy-love/2010/4/1
Used as we are to fanmail (little white lie no.1), we were disappointed to find a rather miserable-looking inbox this week, save from one rather juicy missive from a noted model who got writing about the other side of the catwalk backstage; and while we despise gossip (little white lie no.2), we felt it was our duty to share. ]]> Wed, 03 Mar 2010 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Ooh-la-la----A-model-dishes-out-/2010/3/3 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Ooh-la-la----A-model-dishes-out-/2010/3/3
We are sensing some fashion week excitement all around and that would include our mailbox; we do understand fashion is a passion to many but where are your manners people? ]]> Wed, 10 Feb 2010 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Access-no-areas/2010/2/10 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Access-no-areas/2010/2/10
Swide is very much feeling the inbox love only days prior to Valentine's though we're definitely reminded of the old adage that love comes in unusual ways - some leaving us much warmer inside than others... ]]> Thu, 04 Feb 2010 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Lonely-hearts-needn-t-apply/2010/2/4 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Lonely-hearts-needn-t-apply/2010/2/4
This week it seems eating was on everyone's mind and so we turned nutritionists and concierge. After that it was all back to normal as we crushed more hopes and dreams... ]]> Wed, 27 Jan 2010 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/The-metaphorical-Swide-diet-/2010/1/27 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/The-metaphorical-Swide-diet-/2010/1/27
A wind of prudishness has been blowing through our inbox lately; it seems that men's fashion week has gotten quite a few of our readers worked up for some pretty unexpected reasons... though perhaps we shouldn't be speaking so fast... ]]> Thu, 21 Jan 2010 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/They-shoot-fashionistas--don-t-they---/2010/1/21 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/They-shoot-fashionistas--don-t-they---/2010/1/21

Not only having to respond to our usual 'special' Dolce&Gabbana fans, in the spirit of the current economic climate we've also been given the task of answering letters from our very own Swide readers. How pleased we are. ]]> Thu, 04 Jun 2009 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/We-locate-a-muse/2009/6/4 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/We-locate-a-muse/2009/6/4
This week our mailbox is full of budding entrepreneurs wanting to sell us not only part of various third world countries - but a jewellery collection and a new sportswear brand. What part of Dolce & Gabbana do people not understand exactly?? ]]> Tue, 02 Jun 2009 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Selling-snow-to-eskimos/2009/6/2 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Selling-snow-to-eskimos/2009/6/2
Perhaps it's the credit crunch - or that people are just getting better looking? Whatever it is this week's mail-bag is full of models wanting our attention. Can we live on models alone? ]]> Wed, 11 Mar 2009 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Models-with-potential/2009/3/11 http://www.swide.com/luxury-magazine/History/Dirty-Laundry/Models-with-potential/2009/3/11
Is it the snow or the dark nights?
