Dr Lecter Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I love genuine adoration for her . I do that all the time when people ask me why I'm a fan and they automatically just go for the "gay icon" thing and I have to educate them about seeing her on The Tube of ToTP, and explaining that no other generations will experience that ever because there is only one I need to lie down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poison Flower Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 he said such awful and stupid (and innacurate and ungrateful) things about her recently. it was on belgium tv so maybe he thought nobody would hear it so he could express himself freely but I was so disappointed ☹ it's not the first time though, he made a collection a few years ago about "aging gracefully" and said it was against all those celebrities who refuse to grow old and have those huge cheeks and all the same botoxed face, it was clearly a shade...

Poison Flower Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm talking about Gaultier of course. here is the video, for the francophones (starts at 53'00) : http://www.rtbf.be/tv/emission/detail_hep-taxi/actualites/article_revoir-jean-paul-gaultier-dans-hep-taxi-a-paris?id=8960528&emissionId=64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on my phone and I can't really watch this right now. Does he come out and say Madonna or does he say the things you said he did in your previous post and you consider Madonna to be a over Botox filler face who refuses to age gracefully?

Poison Flower Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 no, same thing since 1990, it's all about the money. basically he rants for 10mn explaining how she's a greedy bitch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acko Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Um no he doesn't. And btw that's my co-worker Jérome who's interviewing him. He's basically explaining that he doesn't agree that celebrities should get clothes`4 free and that he doesn't want 2 play that game. Madonna is the biggest & sorta started that trend after working with the Italians who gave their shit 4 free (hello Versace) and now everyone wants 2 act like they are Madonna.

jaron Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Well, hes right in terms that he doenst want give the pieces for free, its like madonna publishing an album for free, and we all know what she thinks about that ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realityisalways Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Call me naive but I've always felt that Madonna wearing his creations on the BA Tour is what really took him into the stratosphere of iconic designers. Would I be right in saying that? How influential etc was he previous to his involvement with the tour? That's right, and Dolce and Gabbana have also credited Madonna as what made them famous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realityisalways Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Do you owe your big breakthrough to Madonna?STEFANO GABBANA Yes. To her. She has helped us to become who we are today.DOMENICO DOLCE We had all her records. We had gone to see her perform in Torino and other locations. We would say to each other: just imagine if one day she chose to wear one of our creations? Three months later we saw a picture of her published on The Herald Tribune. She was at a Jean Paul Gaultier party in Paris wearing a black crochet sweater inspired by Italian’s southern tradition. We couldn’t believe itDid you then try to contact her?GABBANA She came to us. We had a little room in New York we would use as a PR office which a Vietnamese boy was in charge of. Madonna’s assistant got in touch and said she was going to appear at the premiere of her film Truth or Dare and that she would have loved a bodice encrusted with coloured stones, a man’s jacket and thigh-highs. She showed up at the New York Truth or Dare event and the next thing you know she was featured on every single major international publication, next to a photo of one of our catwalk shows. That shot of hers was literally everywhere globally.DOLCE Then the movie came out and one of our friends who works as a restorer at the Metropolitan Museum of Modern Art called us to let us know that in the American trailer of the movie there was a scene in which a beaming Madonna says something like: “ See I get what I want *snaps finger*, I wanted a Dolce and Gabbana shirt and Warren immediately got it for me”. We just couldn’t believe it. We thought he was pulling a prank on us. When the movie opened in Milan we were the last to go and watch it, frightened at the idea that they were all in fact just poking funBut that line was actually there ...DOLCE Yes and it just so happened that after months of seeing her wearing our clothes we finally asked her out for dinner.Who made the phone call? Stefano or Domenico?DOLCE No we just wrote to her. What we actually did was to dictate a letter to somebody who then translated it for us. What kind of language could have we used on the phone? At least when you’re physically with the person you can overcome the language barrier through hand gestures, but on the phone?Finally dinner in New York …. GABBANA Restaurant on the 17th between 7th and 8th. I was sweating badly due to the emotional situation. My idol! Luckily you could still smoke in restaurants back then and I smoked a cigarette after the otherDOLCE To start off she subjected us to the Proust Questionnaire. She wanted to know everything about us. She was instantly crazy for us and we were immediately crazy for her. We ended up on the dance floor and then we went to her apartmentHow did you communicate with her?DOLCE Gesticulating. But she does speak a little bit of Italian, luckily. She loves Neorealism and she is used to watching the old films in the original language. Visconti, Pasolini, Rossellini. She just knows everything. She’s such an extraordinary woman. Still to this very day, after all these years, you just can’t help but feel in awe of her presence. She’s a type of person you constantly find yourself learning new things from.She is shrewd, cultured and she knows everything about Italy. She is very Italian. But when it comes to business she’s American to the marrow. She ‘s got such a drive and an incredible determination. She was born three days apart from me in August 1958, has sold 300m albums, she’s had everything from life, yet when you see her rehearse a dance routine with her choreographer, she’s just there listening, paying attention, obeying and staying in line like a disciplined student. Humble. Terrific.How is she as a client?GABBANA The ideal client. Very clear ideas.If she wants something she will also specify the colour tonality.
