PHOTOGRAPHY COURTESY OF DOLCE & GABBANA Without a doubt, Dolce & Gabbana's distinct DNA, paired with an unwav- ering commitment to quality and craftsmanship, has served to keep the brand both relevant and recog- nizable over the years. "We strive to create a personal, special, and intimate experience for our customers," says Domenico Dolce. "Our level of qual- ity and attention to detail has become synonymous with the brand." And this attention to detail—from infi - nitely exquisite embroideries to delicate lace accents—goes beyond the needle and thread. In 2013, the designers began serving as creative directors for their ad campaigns, with Domenico behind the lens. "Becoming inspired, creating a sketch, deciding a mood or feeling, and then seeing it all come together when we personally shoot our campaign, it felt like things had come full circle," he says of the experience. As for the next 30 years? The duo's aspirations are still rather simple, accord- ing to Dolce. "We just want to keep working, and to continue doing what we love and create—hopefully—beautiful things." Molto bene.

This year, the highly-anticipated event will take place at the Wynn Las Vegas on January 23rd, and actress Olivia Newton-John will be hon- ored as "Woman of the Year." MAMMA MIA! A pair of ornately embellished headphones are this winter's ultimate accessory. Dolce & Gabbana has long had a relationship with the music industry. The brand's over-the-top style lends itself well to the pomp and circumstance of the stage, so its no surprise the designers drew inspira- tion directly from the music world, and the technology surrounding it, when creating accessories for their Fall 2015 collection. Inspired by one of Dolce & Gabbana's favorite muses, the Mamma, the brass and crystal crown headphones are a play on the traditional crown or tiara, and pay tribute to the mother as "queen." When paired with a specially-designed iPhone case, the headphones are the ultimate fashion accessory for a high-style woman in a high-tech world. No doubt Las Vegas' many artists-in-residence, and fans of the brand, such as Britney Spears, Jennifer Lopez, and Calvin Harris, would approve. STYLE Tastemaker 46 VEGASMAGAZINE.COM
