At 27, Dolce&Gabbana have achieved an impressive status, client base and cult following. The brand’s capacity to take the artistic traditions and aesthetic of Italy and make them their own is unsurpassable and highly romantic to fashion lovers.

Whether it’s talking about his love affair with the camera, his views on what ‘ugly is’ or how he keeps himself sane, the up and coming fashion director was as natural in front of the camera as he is behind it.
The Cannes Film Festival is the epitome of European high glamour on the French Riviera. Sun, surf and…suits. Swide catches three stars who put their best foot forward in Dolce&Gabbana. Gerard Butler, Mathew McConaughey and Zac Efron got suited up to face the onslaught of press photographers that infest every event at Cannes.
Kylie Minogue has had a very very good week indeed. Sparkling brighter than ever at the Cannes Film Festival premier of ‘Holy Motors’, wearing Dolce&Gabbana, and then causing explosive reaction throughout the internet when her new single and video ‘Timebomb’ was dropped today.
