Gucci's Transition Showcases Retro Themes and Heritage

During Milan Fashion Week, Gucci unveiled its Fall/Winter 2025 collection, marking a transition with the departure of creative director Sabato De Sarno. The collection, crafted by the design team, introduced a new color palette with dark green replacing the signature red of De Sarno's era. It paid homage to Gucci's heritage, drawing inspiration from former creative directors Alessandro Michele and Tom Ford, as well as vintage styles from the 1960s to 1990s. The event featured mod-inspired mini dresses, disco jumpsuits, and co-ed collections against a dramatic backdrop with live orchestral music. The design team, wearing matching green sweatshirts, symbolized the brand's interim phase before appointing a new creative director. The collection celebrated Gucci's legacy, notably the 70th anniversary of the Horsebit Bag, with innovative accessories capturing the essence of the brand's storied past.
