Following allegations of tax evasions, Dolce & Gabbana is now the subject of a criminal investigation due to some financial messiness. WWD reports:
Last week the fashion house was ordered to pay a $3 million fine for tax evasion. But this criminal investigation is a whole other bag. It seems the company that owns Dolce & Gabbana, Luxembourg-based Gado Sarl, is a legal entity used to avoiding Italy’s higher corporate taxes. Investigators are also looking into potentially shady books at the house’s U.S. subsidiaries. We’d hate to see for any of this to keep the boys from continuing to bathe the world in their signature Italian excess, because we simply refuse to kiss that good-bye. Godspeed, boys.
