Founded in 1985 by Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, the brand is a titan of Italian luxury. While their beauty journey began with fragrances in 1992 (scoring hits with Light Blue and The One), the brand underwent a massive shift in 2023 by bringing its beauty business in-house. Unlike many luxury houses that license their name to conglomerates, D&G Beauty is now directly managed by the founders to ensure the makeup and skincare lines perfectly mirror their “Sicilian Soul” and high-fashion DNA. Their beauty aesthetic is known for opulent, gold-filigree packaging and a focus on Mediterranean radiance.
