Mr Domenice Dolce and Mr Stafano Gabbana have been accused in court of unfaithfully declaring their
earnings.
The pair have been sentenced to 20 months in jail although the sentenced have been suspended during their appeal.
The trial is a result of a crackdown on tax avoidance, beginning in 2008.
On Wednesday the judge ruled that the pair sold their brand to a Luxembourg based company in 2004 to avoid declaring taxes on royalties of about 1 billion Euros.
However the pair have always stated that they are innocent, and are appealing the sentence.
The company have declined to make a comment.
