RUNWAY REPORT.....Paris Fashion Week: GUCCI Spring/Summer 2019 Collection + Video




Gucci Spring/Summer 2019



WHAT: Gucci Spring/Summer 2019 by Alessandro Michele. Michele has singularly revived the Italian House of Gucci bringing back the past to making it cool and UBER hip...Vogue.com calling it a "Vintage-retrieving design formula".






Gucci Creative Director Alessandro Michele



INSPIRATION: Le Palace Club, the late 70's/80's Montmartre Paris nightclub du jour, think of it as Studio 54 Paris. This was THE PLACE to be seen at during those times; think Yves Saint Laurent, Loulou de la Falaise, Issey Miyake, Antonio Lopez, Karl Lagerfeld...Disco, Drugs, all night Fabulousness.










 Le Palace Club Paris 



SEEN ON THE RUNWAY: Lots of 70's Gucci GG logo jackets, pants, "Leather-Boys"-inspired jock straps, glitter, Lurex, Lame bodysuits, high-waists, boxy "Grandma Chic" suits, 80's shoulders, Showgirl headdresses, Mickey Mouse bags.
