Who we are

D&D – Excellence in fashion distribution

Welcome to D&D, a trailblazing company in the realm of clothing and accessories distribution, representing the most prestigious Italian and international fashion brands. Established in 1994, D&D is the brainchild of Mrs. Daniela Fargion, a prominent figure in the fashion world during the ’80s and ’90s.

A history of success

Mrs. Daniela Fargion has left an indelible mark on the fashion industry, having orchestrated highly successful events globally broadcasted on television Rai 1. The inception of D&D signifies a natural progression in her professional journey, cementing connections with leading designers of “Made in Italy” and renowned international labels.

Mrs. Fargion motto

“Love Dream Win”

“In all our lives there are times when we are called upon to face particular challenges; many of these trials we are able to overcome, while others we have to put off because we’re not yet ready for them. On this journey we’re often confronted with the lives of others who serve as mirrors and examples. Stories that make us realise we’re never alone because those same difficulties have already been faced and overcome by exceptional people.

Daniela Fargion has made her strength of will her hallmark; an aspect of her character manifesting itself in a strong and determined woman and enabling her to courageously face up to a life that has been a steep uphill climb from the outset.

Being successful doesn’t always mean winning, but having the strength to get back up on your feet when you fall, and in this extraordinary adventure, together with Daniela we will go through the many falls, but just as many rises, always sustained by her unshakeable strength and confidence that sooner or later results will come.

Strength, talent and determination will be our travelling companions in this true and compelling story of a life marked by the enthusiasm of great successes but also by deep sorrows, overcome with the strength of who knows that in the end love conquers all.”
