GUCCI SS16

Alessandro Michele has built a beautiful collection for GUCCI spring/summer 2016, and I was happy to see a full fur mink jacket. Beautiful classic style with an interesting touch in that green leaf coming up the coat. We could also see fur bracelets trimming the end of the sleeves in this gorgeous coat below.   

GUCCI always showcases some fur in its collection, which is a smart mood as fur is expensive and a great money maker. What I love is that they always manage to blend it with the rest of the collection and offer a different perspective on it. Great work so far Alessandro.

GUCCI Fall 2015

The first collection of Alessandro Michele for GUCCI is gorgeous. A great hit in many aspects and considered the revival that the brand was in need of. GUCCI always features a few fur pieces in its collections and this year they are key points. We find full length fur coats but also many fur details in other garments like bracelets or trims on wool coats, everything in line with the romantic/sexy/military vibe in the collection. Timeless elegance.

Gucci's kangaroo lined shoes

So Gucci is the protagonist of the controversial campaign of the season. And let me tell you that I am not so sure this was not looked for. Gucci has got all press talking about its kangaroo fur lined shoes and protestors going mental about them. 

I absolutely love them. I think they are fun, different and stylish. I am not that sure if they are for everybody and not only for the price, some people might have to take extra care with their foot hygiene this winter!
