Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana Honored with the Ambrogino D’oro Award
As a way to show their appreciation, the Municipality of Milan will honor Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana for all of the support they have offered their hometown.
“We are extremely honored and excited to receive this award. Milan is not only our city and where our home is, but also the place that allowed us to make our dream come true. Milan has given us a lot and we cannot be but happy that our work contributed to its well-being,” said Gabbana, a true Milanese, adding he’s heard of the Ambrogino D’oro award since he was in primary school, when he believed it was given to heroes.
The Ambrogino D’oro award is not only a high-profile designation, but also a 45-year old tradition. This historic recognition is only given to those who’ve distinguished themselves and contributed to the overall well-being of the city. Named after Saint Ambrogio, the award is a quite an honor for the designers.
Being able to see fashion influence the landscape of towns for the better allows us to see the fashion industry beyond simply trendsetters.
So LUXies, what fashion designers have influenced your own personal well-being and positive outlook on life? Would you say that fashion has played such a deep role in your life?
