Realty TV star Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s wedding is reportedly being sponsored by Dolce & Gabbana in a deal set to give millions of pounds worth of free publicity to the controversy-hit luxury fashion house.
Members of the Kardashian and Jenner family have been repeatedly photographed in expensive Dolce & Gabbana outfits in the run up to the ceremony which is being held later today in the Italian seaside village of Portofino.
According to exclusive report by Mail Online, the worldwide coverage of the reality stars showcasing the brand’s clothes against the idyllic backdrop of the Italian Riviera is set to give millions of pounds worth of free publicity to Dolce & Gabbana which has been hit by controversies in recent years.
As part of the deal, guests will be ferried from their hotels to Portofino harbour late this afternoon in a fleet of four classic wooden Riva speedboats, furnished with Dolce & Gabbana accessories including animal print cushions and towels.
MailOnline revealed that the Italian fashion house has been closely involved in organising every aspect of the lavish wedding celebrations which has been described as the showbiz event of the year.
It is also reported that the fashion designers, Stefano Dolce and Domenico Gabbana have a longstanding relationship with the Kardashians and the couple, Kourtney, 43 and Travis, 46, have also been staying on the superyacht Regina d’Italia which is believed to be owned by Stefano Gabbana, the co-founder of Dolce & Gabbana.
