• Asian must stop their reverence and worship of these self styled Western "luxury" houses and luxury brands; Europeans don't give a shit about Gucci or D&G and it's Americans or status concious Asians especially Koreans/Chinese who buy such self proclaimed "luxury" branded good and keep such brands afloat long after the founding designers die and their new designs are no longer good or interesting. The top living designers today are predominantly Asian and are folks like Guo Pei, Elie Saab, Robert Wun, Zuhair Murad , Rahul Mishra, you can google their work, they're very artistic and they don't work for LV or Chanel because they are so good they don't need an old-time brandname to fund them or boost their personal brand.

  • Thank you! Agree with you 100 %. Whatever happened to Asian elegance?
    What some of these designers sell is sex, not creative artistic design.
    She can’t even carry it off. Look at her pose holding the purse! Ridiculous.

    • What Asian elegance lmao

    • Agreed. Her poses are awkward & she looks uncomfortable.

  • As a french, i may say that i agree with you , the great creators who liked to dress women are dead , YSL, G Chanel, Christian Dior, Givenchy,... Audrey Hepburn wore all the time Givenchy , Grace Kelly with Dior, The fabulous tuxedo by YSL Leaticia Casta or Catherine Deneuve were fantastic wearing this . In the 70's, 80's Lazarro did fabulous dresses for french singers as Sylvie Vartan , Dalida,...This year only Dior had a a beautiful collection . Nowadays i don't like all the creators who are working for all the luxury brands , but it depends on the celebrity . Brigitte Macron, wife of the french president, is old but she knows how to dress with elegance and it's Nicolas Ghesquière (LV) who make all her outfits with her guidance ! I like all the beautiful dresses that the late Diane Von Furstenberg did .

    • Dior is my favourite brand.. I adore many of Dior's collection from past to current.

    • Talking about Brigitte Marcon, Melania Trump during her stint as First Lady also dresses fabulously. I know many people hate her but her sense of fashion from top to toes are just flawless. Another First Lady that dresses fabulously is Queen Rania of Yordania. Also Angelica Rivera, ex First Lady of Mexico.

      They wore simple beautiful elegant dresses with great cut that show off their feminine beauty.

  • Only ever heard of Elie Saab. The other ones are pretty much irrelevant. Next.

    • Me too. Only heard about Elie Saab. LOL

  • Guo Pei and Robert Wun are such tacky designers, in the same group as Miss Sohee. Their clothes are the equivalent of prom dresses on steroids, replete with sequins, glitter, lace, frills, velvet, satin, volume, train, etc. They have no sense of proportion or structure, and no mastery of the cut or drape. They're wannabe McQueen and Galliano, except those two were absolute masters of the craft and had strong, artistic vision.

    Murad and Saab are better at delivering the clothing basics such good quality and cut, but all their collections are just a procession of sequined evening gowns. Their main clientele is the Arab elite, which is enough to fund a standalone brand.

    The 'best' and most influential Asian designers are still the old Japanese guard like Yamamoto and Kawabuko.

• Yeah... I hate it

• Yeah.... I hate it

• To add to my last comment, Dolce & Gabbana had previous controversies of racist advertising in China https://www.aboutresilience.com/high-cost-of-racism-in-high-fashion-a-case-study-on-dolce-and-gabbanas-cultural-appropriation/ and Stefano Gabbana the co-founder basically counteraccused Chinese folks who found it offensive of being racist for "eating dogs" and called it a "country of shot". TBH i didn't find the advertisement too bad (a model was shown digging at pizza with chopsticks like an uncultured heathen, then they ask if she finds Italian cannoli too big insinuating that Chinese phalluses are small i guess) but Stefano Gabbana's rant is extremely racist. It's crazy that such brands still have a market when they also likely deem Koreans as "dog eating", "small penis" folks too and have even less respect for less prosperous non-East Asia Asian countries.

  Moon Gayoung looked so uncomfortable like she didn't want to wear the outfit, D&G probably sent her a skimpy dress and told/paid her to wear it knowing that it would cause a controversy. They don't exactly have a track record of respecting Asians and probably think it's funny to make an Asian woman dress in lingerie in public for money.

  • Yes, THAT controversy. I also don't find the ads to be offensive since I can took it as a bad humour but Gabbana's rants and insults that showed his racist self. You won't see C celebs being caught death in D&G and I thought the same for K and J. Imagine my surprised when I saw Son Ye Jin was wearing it in Crash Landing On You. The racist ads was in 2018 while CLOY was 2019 which was not so long after.

    Over the years I saw many K celebs still supporting D&G.

  • I too agree, the advert was sexual and abit rude but I did see the humour... It is his rant that is racist.

    The outfit Moon Gayoung wore is really not great.

  • Get a grip. Koreans are just obsessed with luxury brands.

• It's fashion week, not nun week. Provocative, sure but she looks good.

  • 😹

  • You call that good. She is grotesquely thin, pale and looks like a prostitute.

  • No one is saying she should be covered from head to toe so why are you implying that everyone here is just acting like a prude lol. You do realize you can dress sexy without looking cheap?

• I'm surprised that D&G still exist in Asian market.....hahahahaa Btw, she doesn't have ample chest volume for such cleavage baring top.

• She's too think, skinny bone for the outfit.

• The fit in the bust is horrible, too small for her. And the dress is also ugly. Not against dressing as sexy as she wants, but this is a mistake. She should fire her stylist.

• She cannot carry this outfit. At certain angles (not seeing the face), I thought it was Vera Wang 😂😂

• It is both inappropriate and fugly - and she clearly looks uncomfortable in it. I don't understand what her team is thinking.
