“I want the end of necessities, to blend in abundance”. So she sang in Voglio stare bene, one of the most important Italian singers, Mina. And it is the abundant adjective, the opulence, the copiousness of the structure, the distinctive trait of Gucci‘s autumn pre-collection sunglasses under the artistic direction of Alessandro Michele, designer of the made in Italy fashion house since 2015.
The models, both for man and woman, are defined by the Florentine maison, set up in 1921 by Guccio Gucci, “proudly oversized, with exaggerated bars combining textures and colors, such as light horn and dark brown Havana and are characterized by the maxi GG logo or the golden metal rivet, even this strictly oversize”. In short, the canonical proportions are banished. Michele, on the other hand, has accustomed the public to an aesthetic philosophy in line with these accessories, also the protagonists of the new language proposed by the creator.
Gucci’s fashion shows have been a miscellaneous for a few seasons. Different colors, fabrics, silhouettes, styles and aesthetics are used on dresses depicting today’s women and men: different, unapproved, yet all faithful to the same imperative, namely being free. From conventions, a single style. And in this psychedelic universe, these sunglasses appear paradoxically among the few details that make a total look thought by the Roman designer more balanced. And this is the strength of the brand: to extricate to get to the essence of style.
