Gucci AW 12: charming decadentism


Gucci opens the Milano Fashion Week with a dark, decadent collection.
La settimana della moda si apre alla grande, con un Gucci in grande spolvero.

Decadent, charming and infinitely chic, the new Gucci's collection reminds me of Klimt's vampire-women: so beautiful and fatal that you can't stop watch them.

Gucci's woman is a "fleur du mal", as the famous poem of Baudelaire, with pale vampirish skin and crimson lips. A bit horsewoman that wears leather pants and long boots and a bit femme fatale, that plays with transparencies and deep slits.

Frida Giannini presents a symphony of velvet, brocades and silk superpositions that ends with a grand finale made of black voile gowns adorned with big jewel-flowers. A crepuscular woman, that is already a cult.


Decadente, ammaliatrice ed infinitamente chic, la donna di Gucci mi ricorda le donne vampiro di Klimt: così belle e fatali che non puoi fare a meno di guardarle.

La donna di Gucci è un fleur du mal, per dirla à la Baudelaire, con incarnato vampiresco e labbra cremisi. Un po' cavallerizza che veste pantaloni di pelle attillati e stivaloni, un po' femme fatale, che seduce con trasparenze e spacchi abissali.

Frida Giannini presenta una sinfonia di velluti, broccati, sovrapposizioni di sete che si conclude in un tripudio di abiti in voile adornati da grandi fiori gioiello. Una donna crepuscolare, che è già un cult.

Gorgeous collection! I like that fur jacket and that feather jacket. Is that an ostrich feather?
