Description
The story of Gucci, one of the oldest Italian fashion brands in existence, is told in this book. Founded in Florence in 1921, Gucci was established with the goal of creating opulent luggage for Italy's wealthy and fashionable upper-classes. The brand's signature items, including the belt, bag, and loafer, have remained central to its identity over the years.
The brand's evolution is marked by the visionary looks of its founders and creative directors. From the 1990s aesthetic epitomized by Tom Ford to the current combination of romance and toughness under Alessandro Michele, Gucci's designs have transcended fleeting fashion trends. This book explores the history and design of Gucci, a brand that has become synonymous with Italian luxury.
