In a tirade similar to his earlier controversies, Domenico Dolce, co-founder of the Italian luxury brand Dolce & Gabbana, on an excursion to Sicily, was quoted as saying that the younger generations are lazy and inactive.
The background for the backdrop for. Dolce’s speech opened a photography exhibition of his work in Polizzi Generosa, his ancestral home, and celebrated his birthday. The late Mr. Dolce has criticized local youths for not volunteering at his cultural foundation. He also suggested they should be taught crafts such as bean-growing and embroidery.

We ourselves are institutions. The generation of today has no dignity. They say I don’t do anything to help them and yet when I was 18 I packed a suitcase of cardboard and traveled to Milan. Make peanuts, the badda beans and embroider. How could advance if nobody takes action”.

The youth unemployment rate in Italy in 2022 was nearly 24 percent, but in certain regions, it rose to almost 40 percent. However, the total number dropped from 29.71 percent in the outbreak, with the third-highest unemployment rate in Europe. Many young Italians migrate to other countries in search of opportunities. Additionally, 80 percent of Italy’s medium and small companies are owned by family members and run, making it harder for the new generation to rise to corporate ranks.
