Some Statistics


https://www.statista.com/search/?q=Dolce+%26+Gabbana&language=0&p=3

 From what I understand about about these statistics, is that throughout the years, Dolce and Gabbana have been up and down when it comes to profits and income. In the most recent year (2017), shows that the turnover had declined a bit but profits were still up. This is good news for the brand as the turnover might not as been high as last years but profits are definitely up by a large percentage, so this shows that people are still buying for Dolce and Gabbana. This might be down to opening more stores across the globe or having a different approach to brand strategy. FW17 was the first year the brand used social media influencers and bloggers on their runway, so this might have impacted their profits in the long run as this was the only thing I could find that was significant for the brand in that year.

Example: Virgil Abouh the owner of the luxury streetwear brand 'Off White', is now head designer of Louis Vuitton menswear. This is a very smart move from the fashion house as streetwear is
