DOLCE & GABBANA may have dressed some of the most famous people in the world, but they don't dress anyone. "Sometimes when pop stars ask to borrow clothes, I say no because I don't have the time or maybe because I don't like the people, I don't like the singer, I don't like the song," Stefano Gabbana told The Independent. "I asked George Michael many times if we could dress him and he said no. Not in a bad way. He said, 'No thank you, because I have everything already, I really appreciate it but I don't need it.' And on his last album, Patience, he was wearing sunglasses, and I say, 'Thank you so much!'" But there are plenty of people they have dressed. "I love Kylie, I love Lenny Kravitz, I love Sting, I love them all," he went on. "Every one of them is an icon. I love Pavarotti. We've dressed Pavarotti many times." And the Italian designer admits to being star struck only once, when Madonna requested a fitting. "She was the one singer who made me feel nervous," he said. "Me and Domenico - both of us. We love her, and we knew her from the beginning. I'd seen all her different faces, as a singer, movie star, mother, lover. She was the first pop star to ask us for something, and we loved her from a long time ago. People like that, they can make me anxious sometimes." So why is it so important for top designers to get into the celebrity wardrobe? "You become famous little by little," Gabbana goes on. "It's a good ad for us. You don't make money but you become, you know, popular."
