The roaring twenties and an art deco was quite apparent for the inspiration of Gucci's Spring 2012 collection. Instead of a plethora of colors and color blocking from previous collections, Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini's went with a darker palette of black, white, metallics with pops of emerald green and tangerines. Feminine yet androgynous.
Gucci opened Milan Fashion Week with a Fall 2011 showing which surprisingly stayed in the same vein as pre-fall’s glam seventies collection. Adding to that base, Gucci designer Frida Giannini took on jewel toned hues of turquoise and fuchsia with fur accents and sheer floor-length gowns. Models strutted down the runway with oversize hats, dark shades, plum lips and tailored jackets for one sexy and strong outing. (fashiongonerogue) (style)
