Dolce & Gabbana are masters in creating iconic objects of desire which transcend trends and even decades: the corset dress, the masculine look, the embroidered cocktail dress and the Miss Sicily hand bag, to name but a few. To that list is it safe to say that we can add this summer’s must have accessory: the Dolce Bag.
Celebrities can’t get enough of them! Fergie, Bianca Balti, Claudia Schiffer, Penelope Cruz and Chiara Francini are amongst those who have been bitten by the Dolce Bag bug, and there is no surprise as to why.

With two of his projects: ‘Moneyball’ and ‘The Tree of Life’, receiving Oscar nominations this is the year that Brad Pitt finally gets the recognition he deserves.
