The dark side of Dolce & Gabbana: Kardashians pocket millions from brand despite past controversies

All is strife once more in the noble house of Kardashian.

Sister has called out sister, throwing down the gauntlet – in this case, most likely a sheer black opera glove – in a titanic feud over which of them has the right to wear their favorite Italian fashion designer.
