Q&A: Dolce and gabbana

DD stands for Domenico Dolce; SG for Stefano Gabbana.

Giorgio Armani and Jean Paul Gaultier have launched their haute couture lines in China. Stephane Rolland has also used Fan Bingbing in its haute couture collection. Will you use some Chinese elements or endorsements in your Alta Moda line?

DD: We usually don't make predictions like that, but we can say, almost certainly, yes. We love China, its culture and its traditions. In the past, we dedicated a collection to China (SS '97), because we've always been fascinated by it.
