I am honestly disappointed with this act,' vogue.co.uk quoted Armani as saying.
Armani wore the quilted trouser during a catwalk in June. The trouser is now being offered by D&G for the next season.
D&G are unimpressed with the accusation and have been quick to insist that they are no plagiarists.
'We surely have plenty to learn, but certainly not from him. The Armani style was never a source of inspiration for us and it is years since we have bothered to watch his collections,' said the designer duo.
D&G designs are worn by the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Michelle Williams, Madonna, Monica Bellucci, Ashanti, Christina Aguilera, Isabella Rossellini, and Kylie Minogue and many more.
