Dolce & Gabbana Launches Amore for Scientific Research Campaign

Dolce & Gabbana has announced a collaboration with Humanitas University, an international school dedicated to life sciences in Milan, to help strengthen the university's critical global health initiatives. To show their dedication to the cause, Dolce & Gabbana has launched Amore for Scientific Research, a campaign that celebrates life and the beauty of Italy, featuring actress Sofia Vergara and the iconic Dolce & Gabbana Devotion bag. A portion of the proceeds from the Devotion collection bag sales will be donated to Humanitas University to fund global health research in the time of Coronavirus. The Devotion Collection bags are available for purchase on Dolce & Gabbana's website.

We truly hope that all of this will lead to a rebirth, and want to do our part so that all of us, especially future generations, can one day benefit from these fundamental scientific discoveries,” Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana said in a joint statement.
