 My review of Dolce & Gabbana's website:

My first initial thought when I clicked on the website is that its laid out easily to read and workout, I thought it looked a lot like Vogue magazine's website which is laid out very similar. 



As you can see from the two photo's D&G has the titles across the top and squares images on the home page. 

Dolce & Gabbana have news of whats going on in the fashion brands world on their home page along with eye catching photographs for each one.


Still on the home page when you go to explore the different titles it comes up with a menu. It is clear and simple with a link to the online store. This is the same for the men and children titles too. The rest of the titles are just links straight to what it says. Beauty, watches, eyewear, jewellery and the online store link all take you to a new tab in your browser, discover keeps you on the same website. In my opinion I'd rather stay on the same website as its less hassle and doesn't fill your tabs up.




When clicking onto a link off the menu off the women's title, Spring summer 2019 Women's Fashion Show, above is what the page looked like. It's neat and clear to the reader. This is the same for all tabs under women, men and children.

The online store:


The online store is the same as the website with the titles across the top. It also has a flying trainer animated across the page which adds a playful theme to the page. 

The home page has adverts promoting new products out. 



When hovering your curser over the titles it comes up with a menu that fills the screen for women, men, children and gifts, and with watches and jewellery and DGYOURSELF it takes you to a new page straight away. 

The website is easy to get around I'd say for any age as its simple and easy to read with the font.
The font is all capitalised and is reasonably sized.

Net-a-porter



The home page of Net-a-porter website in my opinion isn't as easy to read as Dolce & Gabbana as it has many colours and fonts going on. 




Again, like D&G if you hoover over the titles it comes up with a menu flling the page, to find D&G i had to click on the title 'Designers' then follow the link that said 'Designer A-Z'. Once on the corect page I clicked 'D' and scrolled to find Dolce & Gabbana. 
For me this is easy but still more hassle than D&G's website. 


On the Dolce & Gabbana page it says how many results its found with all products mixed together then you can refine it on the side as to what you're looking for. 

The font is easy to read yet I prefer D&G's website. The font is not all capitalised and looks smaller than D&G's.


Net-a-porter have a live chat where you can speak to someone if you need help whilst shopping. I think this is helpful as when I'm shopping if something is out of stock or if you want to know if it has a matching piece it is easy to have the option to ask someone.

Dolce & Gabbana: competitors

Image
http://academic.mintel.com/display/754870/?highlight#hit1 Consumer exposure and presence in more accessible markets appears to influence trust in brands, although Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen standout in terms of differentiation, indicating that brands without high usage can still make their mark. These two brands are likely to be particularly associated with being cutting-edge. Gucci has the highest perception of quality and reputation, which helps to encourage more trust than other brands. Of these brands, DKNY has the strongest perception of offering value, the highest perception of accessibility and the lowest perception of exclusivity, which may also result in a lower proportion of standout. Michael Kors stands out as the favourite brand in the list and has one of the highest levels of recommendation and proportion of excellent responses. While it has lower usage than more established brands, usage in the last year suggests that it is increasing its profile. B...

Dolce & Gabbana: slave sandals

https://footwearnews.com/2016/fashion/designers/dolce-gabbana-slave-sandals-controversy-pom-pom-leather-lace-up-199251/ The label has listed its spring ’16 collection online for pre-order and among the shoes available is a so-called “Slave” sandal. While the term is, in fact, a description for a particular lace-up shoe silhouette, it is almost entirely obsolete with the now widely-preferred description “gladiator sandals.” While the brand’s e-commerce site refers to the shoe as the “Slave” sandal, other retailers carrying the same style have chosen to omit the term entirely. Moda Operandi has titled the style the “Pom Pom Wrap Around Sandal.” Saks calls it the “Pom-Pom Leather Lace-Up Sandal.” The collection was inspired by their Italian heritage through the eyes of tourists and jet-set locations like Rome, Venice and Capri. Apparel throughout the collection was embellished with sayings such as “Italia is Love.” Fashion fans were shocked by the choice of name listed ...
