Celebs Aren’t Taking Dolce and Gabbana’s Crap About IVF

In a recent interview with Panorama magazine, designers Dolce and Gabbana threw around harsh criticism about IVF (in vitro fertilization). “I call children of chemistry, synthetic children,” said Domenic Dolce. Elton John, who has two sons born via surrogate, took to Instagram to respond, saying, “I shall never wear Dolce and Gabbana ever again.” Now other celebrities are slamming the designers with the hashtag #BoycottDolceGabbana.

How dare you refer to my beautiful children as "synthetic". And shame on you for wagging your judgemental little fingers at IVF – a miracle that has allowed legions of loving people, both straight and gay, to fulfil their dream of having children. Your archaic thinking is out of step with the times, just like your fashions. I shall never wear Dolce and Gabbana ever again. #BoycottDolceGabbana

Here’s who’s spoken out so far.

I just round up all my Dolce & Gabbana items and want to burn them. I'm just beyond words and emotions. Boycott senseless bigotry! #boycottD&G

In spite of what @dolcegabbana think, my beautiful IVF children are not “synthetic children”. I agree with @eltonjohndotcom

These designers horrifying views are never in fashion. Their clothes are as ugly as their hate. #BoycottDolceGabbana — Ryan Murphy (@MrRPMurphy) March 15, 2015

Being a child of in vitro fertilization myself, I’m honestly offended by Domenico Dolce’s ignorant statement. #BoycottDolceGabbana — Deion Gill (@DeionGill) March 16, 2015
