FASHION SHOW: Gucci Spring Summer 2012
Gucci latest Spring Summer 2012 collection, named HARD DÉCO as a combo of Art déco and Hard decor, is magnificent in my opining.
Gucci somehow always fails to disappoint me and here’s how Creative Director Frida Gianini explains the collection and vision behind it:
“I wanted to explore an optical side of femininity by creating a sculptural glamour for the Gucci woman fusing elements from our DNA, from design history, from photography – making them current with a strong sense of personality. Louise Brookes and Nancy Cunard in the images of Man Ray. The opulence of the era of hedonism. Mirror embroidery recalling the skyscrapers of a metropolis. Artisanal workings with 3D effects.”
Enjoy the show!
