On 23 February 2024, we gathered at Fonderia Carlo Macchi in Milan to discover the second feminine proposal of the creative.
“Looking for a small subversive gesture. To look at things from a different perspective to the one that is presumed to be the most appropriate, without respecting the rules”. This is how Sabato de Sarno sums up his latest women’s collection for Gucci. A place where you can find the extraordinary in the ordinary, almost by surprise.
To the rhythm of ‘Coronacid’ by Did Virgo and Morgan K, reimagined by Mark Ronson, the big show began, with the models following one another on a large metallic platform as a catwalk. On a sensual colour palette dominated by black, moss green and the now emblematic Rosso Ancora, implemented by Sabato since his arrival as creative director of the fashion house, the different designs were created in an interesting variety of textures and materials.
From delicate lace to voluptuous coats made with exceptional techniques that continue to highlight Gucci‘s intrinsic craftsmanship. The main coat, whose silhouette has been reclaimed from the men’s line and reinvented in modern fibres and striking colours, while the dresses are intermingled with recalled and reconstructed lace, embellished with embroidery and elegant velvets, hand-stitched precious crystals and geometric jacquards.
The ensembles were divided into leather options adorned with snake prints and the iconic GG monogram throughout, as well as subtle knitted looks layered and embellished with rhinestones.
On the handbag side, a new top-handle silhouette with a smooth, perforated logo is crafted from natural, silky nappa leather combined with a cape – named GG Milano – for a lightweight, quilted option. The crescent-shaped style, which finds its inspiration in the house‘s equestrian heritage, has a contemporary spirit, while a third accessory in the form of a clutch is adorned with a metal bar that simulates a bamboo branch.
“That is my way of dreaming, without haste, visualising and layering aspirations as if they were the bricks of a house. In my fashion, as in my dreams, the exercise is the same. Searching through the folds for a void that wants to be filled. Analysing the details in minute detail before proceeding to move away in search of a wider perspective” – Sabato de Sarno.
