For Fall/Winter 2008-09 Gucci creative director Frida Giannini brought us a whimsical, Russian inspired collection.
In one of her strongest collections to date, a clear conviction came across scruffy, unshaven, eyeliner-clad models strutted in gypsy-esque looks.
The mop-headed boys had a rocker chic sense about them as tailored looks were laid on them in a care-free way. Suit jackets and vests were kept informal by being paired with scarves and coin-dangling chain belts.
Reds and purples made powerful statements and came in the form and silks and velvets. Patterned shirts and suits were placed throughout the jingle-jangle collection. A military presence made itself known in the form of jackets and coats with brass buttons and epaulets.
A raw, gritty essence was provided by a constant riveting seen throughout the collection on embellished leather jackets, thin trim belts, boots, and bags.
