The first concept restaurant created by Dolce&Gabbana. Gold is an upbeat, sunny colour, the colour of energy, luxury and a new dolce vita, signifying a taste for beauty and for sensual pleasure.

Iconic Italian fashion label Dolce & Gabbana are the latest to get into the monochrome color trend. Hot on the heels of Hollywood’s green themed bar, Social Hollywood, and the Gold themed Restaurante Les Cols in Catalina, Spain, the dynamic design duo have opened a new restaurant with an entirely gold interior. The golden color scheme is in keeping with the team’s limited edition gold phone for Motorola.

Dolce & Gabbana are no strangers when it comes to opulence, and it comes as no surprise that the glamorous duo’s new endeavour, a restaurant called ‘Gold’, bares as its name the ultimate symbol of money and luxury. Gold has long been key to D&G’s collections, being it their jewellery, ready-to-wear, accessories, and now restaurant décor.

And while this isn’t the first, nor last, celebrity or designer restaurant, Dolce & Gabbana at least know how to make a tasteful statement. The plush location opened with smooth and shimmering golden accents everywhere, serving international Italian food. Gold has several levels including a downstairs bistro that opens at lunchtime and a more formal upstairs that serves dinner only.

According to the website, the golden theme isn’t necessarily intended to represent money and luxury (yeah right), but more importantly gold is “an upbeat, sunny color” that signifies a “taste for beauty and for sensual pleasure.” Judge for yourself the next time you’re in Milan.
