D&G by DOLCE & GABBANA Blouses

Why it is called Dolce & Gabbana comes down to the history of the luxury fashion house. Specifically, two fashion designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, founded the maison. After meeting in Milan in 1980 while working for Italian designer Giorgio Correggiari, Dolce and Gabbana established their eponymous fashion empire in 1982. Three years later, a breakthrough for the duo materialized in the form of an up-and-coming talent showcase at Milan Fashion Week, where they unveiled an approach to fashion design that broke sharply from that of the era’s reigning Italian houses. Soon, their distinctive garments — sexy, feathery skirts and stretchy jersey evening dresses that favored full figures — demanded the fashion world’s undivided attention.

To authenticate Dolce & Gabbana clothing, examine the tags. The neck tag on an authentic Dolce & Gabbana shirt, for example, will display the Italian luxury brand’s name crisply and cleanly in the correct font, which is an iteration of a bold and modern sans serif font called Futura.

The ampersand between the two surnames of the house’s founders will also be very crisp and is considerably smaller than the letters in the brand name. (Visiting the company's official website will be helpful when conducting a Dolce & Gabbana authenticity check, as you can find photos of genuine D&G clothing tags when you navigate to the site's clothing pages.)

There should be very little room around the ampersand between the “E” in Dolce and the “G” in Gabbana on the shirt’s tag. Additionally, the fabric used for the tag will feel substantial. A tag on a fake Dolce & Gabbana shirt will feel flimsy, and the material will feel cheap. The tag’s stitching on a genuine D&G shirt will be the same color as the tag itself so the stitches are not easily seen. The stitching on the tag and elsewhere on a fake piece of Dolce & Gabbana clothing will likely be sloppy and inconsistent. Authentic apparel created by Dolce & Gabbana will show signs of expert tailoring and meticulous craftsmanship.

Another indication of authenticity is sizing. Dolce & Gabbana typically uses Italian sizing. A garment allegedly produced by the brand that is indicative of U.S. sizing may be proof that the apparel is not authentic.
