Summary

When it comes to high fashion, there are few brand names as iconic as Gucci. Known for extravagant handbags, over-the-top fashions, and luxury leather accessories, Gucci has made a name for itself in the fashion world that cannot be denied. Popular among celebrities and elites for a full century, Gucci has transformed itself as a brand over and over, keeping up with current social trends and reinventing itself to stay relevant through the years. Fashion icons like Jackie Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, Sammy Davis Jr., Madonna, Beyonce, and Harry Styles have been spotted wearing pieces associated with the luxury brand or carrying high-end Gucci designer bags. From handbags and totes to ready-to-wear fashions, to makeup and fragrances, and now interior designs, Gucci has maintained an ever-changing, always exclusive audience devoted to the brand for over 100 years.

As an organization, the Gucci brand had humble beginnings, starting with a single shop in Florence, Italy in 1921, but it has become one of the most recognizable and elite brands in fashion history. The Gucci diamante textile, the seminal GG logo, the famous Bamboo bag, and the well-known Horsebit loafers are some of the most quintessential luxury fashion pieces of the last century. From the Jackie bag to the much-criticized balaclava sweater, Gucci has had a sustained, powerful, and edgy presence in the world of high-end fashion.
