Furious A-listers, boycotting models and a cancelled show

The clip released by Dolce & Gabbana on its Instagram and Sina Weibo accounts show a female Asian model in a glitzy red Dolce & Gabbana dress using chopsticks to eat pizza and other Italian foods.

It was intended to promote the Shanghai show, but sparked outcry in China for its insensitivity, in part because of the model awkwardly attempting to eat Western food with chopsticks.

The huge contrast of the designer's sayings makes the apology unconvincing. [Photo/Weibo.com]
