<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">gabbana's partner</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for dolce that I've seen before include "Stop" , "sweetly and softly" , "Musical instruction to play gently and sweetly" , "La ... Vita (Fellini film)" , "To be played sweetly" .)
