PRESENTING GUCCI SUMMER STORIES
The House presents Gucci Summer Stories, a collection designed to capture the spirit of summer, exploration, and escape. Summer Stories evokes the collective joy that accompanies this season’s longer days and warmer nights.
Icons of the House such as the Jackie 1961 and the Horsebit 1955 are presented in woven raffia with leather details. The refined combination of textures is repeated on a timeless classic, the Horsebit loafers, declined in soothing earth tones. Weather it’s a weekend getaway or a long-haul holiday, the curated selection envisions solutions to travel in comfort and style. Jumbo GG leather duffle and tote bags of different sizes and colors from the Gucci Valigeria selection combine the House's beloved motifs with its heritage, creativity, and innovation.
