Miley Cyrus has made a strong statement against Italian fashion house, Dolce & Gabbana, and their politics. In an Instagram post on Saturday, the 24-year-old posted a photo of her younger brother, Braison, walking in his first ever runway show — for Dolce & Gabbana’s spring 2018 menswear collection that afternoon. After a long post of praise for the male member of the Cyrus clan, she adds a line about the brand’s much-buzzed about politics, noting that she is not one to support, no matter how happy she is that they chose Braison to represent them on the runway. Alongside...

First Lady Melania Trump turned to her favorite designer, Dolce & Gabbana, for a visit to the U.S. Supreme Court Thursday, where she and President Donald Trump attended the investiture ceremony for Justice Neil Gorsuch. Paired with a subdued black pencil skirt and black, closed-toe stilettos, Melania was fashion forward in a more than $2,300 sleeveless wool jacket with a bejeweled buckle in the back by Dolce & Gabbana, the First Lady’s favorite Italian fashion house. The jacket is from D&G’s Spring-Summer 2017 collection and can be seen in the photo Melania posted of the ceremony on her Instagram account:

Pouting in a bejwelled crown, Lady Amelia Windsor looked nothing short of a Renaissance princess as she posed for the camera. While the young royal, who is 36th in line to the throne, no doubt has some dazzling jewels in her family, on this occasion the blue-blooded beauty was in fact making her campaign debut for Dolce & Gabbana. The 21-year-old granddaughter of the Duke of Kent, the Queen's first cousin, was cast alongside Princess Olympia of Greece, celebrity offspring and a host of social media starlets for the Italian designer's Fall 2017 shoot.

The Italian designers behind one of Melania Trump’s favorite brands, Dolce & Gabbana, have launched a fashion campaign that seems to mock critics who continue to demand they stop dressing the First Lady. After collaborating with Melania on a number of high fashion looks for her first trip abroad with President Trump, as Big Hollywood chronicled, Dolce & Gabbana are proudly blasting their critics by launching their own “#Boycott Dolce & Gabbana” campaign.In a fashion film for the new line of “#Boycott” t-shirts by Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce, Italian models can be seen waving protest flags while donning the shirts,...

It seems the Trump family is making an effort to appear more approachable. After first lady Melania Trump caused a stir when she stepped out in a $51,500 coat during the G-7 summit last month, various members of the Trump family have been seen out in more approachable, everyday brands. Now it seems Dolce & Gabbana is out, while Target and J.Crew are in. Ivanka Trump, President Donald Trump's eldest daughter and one of his advisers, was photographed earlier this month leaving her house in the Kalorama neighborhood of Washington, DC, in a dress that was easily identified as a...

Outdoor shopping centres are drawing in customers who long ago wrote off the traditional mall experience through a modern mix of food, fashion and practicality. ATLANTA, United States — Pull into the parking lot of the Westside Provisions District, the mixed-use development in Atlanta’s gentrified Westside neighborhood, and you might have to hand your keys over to a valet to help you find a spot — especially on a Saturday afternoon. That’s because, unlike the downtrodden, two-penny outdoor shopping centres and abandoned enclosed malls weighing down the suburbs of the US, Westside Provisions is giving people a reason to swing...

Few female celebrities have been as voiceless as Melania Trump. We know what her voice sounds like — we’ve heard it in clipped, measured phrases at the Republican National Convention, plagiarizing another first lady’s words, or gently chiding her husband for his Twitter use on 60 Minutes. But when Melania speaks, even when she seems to be talking about herself, she manages to say nothing at all. She’s a PR dream: an exquisite, uncontroversial void. When Melania became the first lady of the United States, that void began to overflow with other people’s understandings of her. Because she says so...

What first lady Melania Trump and first daughter Ivanka Trump wear in public seems more important to the press these days than policy issues. This week it’s the news that Ivanka wore a dress that anyone who shops at Target can buy — if there are any in stock once the word gets out. “For just one day, Ivanka Trump has ditched her designer duds for a more down-to-earth approach," the Huffington Post reported on Monday. "The 35-year-old special advisor to President Trump stepped out in a $35 dress from Target on Monday (and it’s actually on sale right now...

Even before President Donald Trump took office in January, there was talk about which fashion designers would — and would not — be interested in dressing first lady Melania Trump. In November, designer Sophie Theallet wrote an open letter to fellow designers asking them to join her in refusing to dress or associate with the first lady. Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford, Phillip Lim and Derek Lam all said publicly that they would not dress Melania. Others including Diane Von Furstenberg, Tommy Hilfiger, Ralph Lauren and Thom Browne said they would. In new interview with Surface magazine, Thom Browne shared more...

The presidential power couples were dressed up and ready for a night out as Trump and Melania prepared for their first social gathering in the capital, joined by Ivanka and Jared. Ivanka and Melania Trump each looked stunning as they stepped out of their respective homes in Washington, DC Sunday evening on their way to the evening's Ford's Theatre Gala. The First Daughter looked regal coming out of her Washington, DC, home hand-in-hand with Jared Sunday afternoon dressed in a $5,500 J Mendel deep red tea-length gown. And at the other end of Washington, Melania stepped out of the White...

These days, every time I sit down to write about the clothes worn by a political figure, I have to take a deep breath. I wrote this week about the image engineering of the first lady, Melania Trump, as she accompanied her husband on his first trip abroad, and I know pretty soon the hate tweets are going to start flooding in. “You idiot, why are you writing about what they wear!” “How dare you normalize them!” “Oh, right: Clothes are so much more important than the budget, you airhead.” And so on.

The male romper, aka the RompHim, has met its slightly more practical match. Introducing lace shorts and tops combos for men from L.A.-based brand Hologram City. They have the sartorial flair of the viral RompHim, but trips to the bathroom are made much more convenient with the division of separates. Not convinced? The slightly NSFW sets come in an array of Insta-worthy pastels. Your #ManCrushMonday deserves to be on the cutting edge of experimental men's fashion, no? (If you answered "no," you need to reevaluate your priorities.) Unfortunately, two pieces are more expensive than one, and each item will cost...

For the first months of Donald Trump’s presidency, his wife Melania has largely kept out of the public eye, so much so that her notable absence from the duties of a modern first lady has prompted speculation regarding both her marriage and her state of mind. As she and Barron make their move to D.C. this summer, many are left wondering what, if anything, we can expect to see change about her position in the Trump administration. Here’s how she may reshape her role—and the White House itself: Melania will probably make a few new hires in the East Wing....

SHANGHAI (AP) — A man investigating working conditions at a Chinese company that produces Ivanka Trump-brand shoes has been arrested and two others are missing, the arrested man's wife and an advocacy group said Tuesday. Hua Haifeng was accused of illegal surveillance, according to his wife, Deng Guilian, who said the police called her Tuesday afternoon. Deng said the caller told her she didn't need to know the details, only that she would not be able to see, speak with or receive money from her husband, the family's breadwinner....

Melania Trump is proving to the fashion designers who said they wouldn’t help her that dressing well is the best revenge. The first lady’s trip to Saudi Arabia, the Vatican, Belgium and Sicily — wearing mostly Dolce & Gabbana — was a fashion tour de force that has forced many naysayers in the rag trade to rethink. The list of designers who said they wouldn’t dress Melania is long, led by Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, Zac Posen, Christian Siriano and Sophie Theallet. But Melania has managed to look smashing in dozens of different ensembles, from her white Ralph Lauren jumpsuit...

First Lady of the United States, Melania and her husband, Donald have ended their first international trip. While the president has given the media so much to talk about from dancing with swords in Saudi Arabia to shoving Montenegro’s Prime Minister, Melania has successfully managed to be the star of the trip – thanks to her fashion choices. From Saudi Arabia to Rome, Brussels to Israel and finally Italy, Melania Trump has proven that when it comes to style, she is one to respect. Though it took a trip across the globe to get that message out there, we think...

As the overseas debut of President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump draws to a close -- the couple is set to return to Washington this weekend -- there was the usual bluster and bravado from the President. His white-knuckled handshake with France's new president made headlines. The speech to NATO was memorable, as was his brusque, push-aside of the leader of Montenegro to make his way to the front of a pack of world leaders. It was classic, unadulterated Trump, a man the country has come to know for all of the above quirks, mannerisms and machismo. But...
