line-height: 100%">I have always admired your ‘joie de vivre’ and famous sense of humour so present in your brand and in your designs and although I appreciate that Dolce &amp; Gabbana is a very successful commercial enterprise, I fail to understand in what way ‘Dolce &amp; Banana’ could possibly be threatening or even disturbing D &amp; G.</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 100%">It is evident when visiting our <a href="http://www.dolceandbanana.com">website </a>or <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dolce-Banana-irresistible-jewels/115479671815324">FB page</a> that we do not copy anyone , sell counterfeit goods or even attempt to deceive your clients…or 'dilute' your famous brand .</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 100%">I have started this business 12 years ago making fashion jewellery with a group of African ladies working from their homes in the township of Houtbay. We have now a lo vely shop on a famous tourist route in Cape Town and we so enjoy the smile on people’s faces when taking pictures of our sign from their moving cars !</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 100%">To sum up , I am proud of providing much needed employment in this part of the world and trying to make a living creating ‘irresistible jewels’ with a funny brand name ….is this really a crime ?</p><p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 100%">This court case is not only causing harm to our small business , it promulgates the negative attitude of big corporations .</p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; line-height: 100%">dear Stefano ….please let us be.... and visit us in Cape town <span class="Apple-style-span">! </span></p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;
