Gucci staged its resort show at its archive in Florence’s Palazzo Settimanni today. Luke Leitch reports it “reflected an amalgam of multiple phases of Gucci’s ready-to-wear past.” If its “guiding spirit was the late mid-century jet-set glamour that Ford identified in the DNA of the house, then transformed from dusty to must-have, around those foundational feathered chubbies and deep-neckline sequin gowns” were nods to “the bows and maximalist lushness of Michele, the fitted sleekness of Giannini, and the net pattern and masculine leather outerwear of De Sarno.” Next up: Demna’s debut! |
