The newly elected Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris, has been criticized online for her love of the clothes of the Dolce & Gabbana fashion house, hated by Americans. The information appeared on the website of the Independent, writes Jana delphi.
The 56-year-old politician has appeared several times in public in the clothes of the Italian luxury brand. For example, she went to a reception with US President Joe Biden in a woolen jumper of this brand, and she came to a meeting with Finance Minister Janet Yellen Harris in a gray trouser suit and a plaid jacket from a fashion house.
The creator of the Instagram account Kamala's Closet, Vittoria Vignone, published a series of stories in which she criticized Harris for choosing Dolce & Gabbana clothes.
"D&G is a brand with a lot of political controversy," she explained.

Subscribers agreed with the words of the author of the posts. In their opinion, the US Vice President should abandon Dolce & Gabbana outfits for several reasons. In particular, because the brand is not American, and it is luxury.
“It seems to me that Harris should not wear clothes from other countries. Plus she could wear more affordable brands, ”Vignone said.
In addition, American users drew attention to the fact that the founders of the fashion house Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana had previously been accused of racism due to commercials. In one of them, a Chinese woman tried unsuccessfully to eat Italian food with Chinese chopsticks, and a voice-over left caustic comments about this.
In addition, the creator of the Kamala's Closet page emphasized that the mentioned designers collaborated with the former US First Lady Melania Trump, while other designers refused to work with her.
“I would rather celebrate the brands that Kamala chooses and which are worth supporting, rather than talk again about racist, sexist and homophobic brands,” concluded Vignone.

In November 2018, the creators of Dolce & Gabbana mocked a woman, which infuriated the Chinese. In their commercial, a Chinese woman tried to eat Italian food with chopsticks.
“Dolce & Gabbana didn't even bother to learn basic things about Chinese customers. This ad is insulting to my culture, ”the users wrote in the comments.
