From Driving Gloves to Skirt Suits, The Gucci Show Cemented the ’60s Style Revival

Over
a
year
into
his
tenure
as
creative
director,
and
Sabato
de
Sarno
is
officially
hitting
his
stride
at
Gucci.
For
the
past
two
seasons,
the
Italian
house
has
been
undergoing
a
complete
makeover,
making
this
season’s
Gucci
show
one
of
the
hottest
tickets
in
town.
In
lieu
of
traditional
paper
invites,
guests
received
a
retro
Nordic-style
desk
calendar
indicating
the
date
of
the

spring/summer
2025
collection
which
was
presented
at
the
Triennale
Milano,
an
art
and
design
museum.
There,
models
descended
from
a
spiral
staircase
onto
a
slick
catwalk
painted
in
the
brand’s
signature

burgundy
shade.

The
designer
used
the
term “casual
grandeur”
to
describe
how
this
collection
took
its
shape,
calling
out
tailoring,
lingerie,
leather,
and ’60s
silhouettes
as
his
obsessions
of
the
moment
which
all
culminated
in
a
collection
that
felt
at
once
retro
and
modern.
De
Sarno
explored
the
heritage
of
the
brand
through
legacy
motifs
like
bamboo
and
horsebit,
which
both
took
on
fresh
forms
through
a
horsebit
print
and
bamboo-inspired
jewelry.
From
a
’60s
style
revival
to
new
belts,
bags,
and
shoes,
here’s
everything
to
know
about
the
Gucci
Spring
2025
show
during
Milan
Fashion
Week.

A-List
Attendance

Nobody
brings
out
an
impressive
A-list
crowd
like
Gucci
does,
and
its
latest
runway
show
hardly
wavered
from
its
reputation.
Season
after
season,
it’s
reliably
been
the
backdrop
to
viral
celebrity
moments
and
this
season
delivered
all
the
same.
Dakota
Johnson
arrived
wearing
a
sheer
white
dress
topped
off
with
a
leather
jacket
and
large
Gucci
shades.

Bridgerton
star
Nicola
Coughlan
leaned
into
fall’s
suede
trend
and
opted
for
a
brown
suede
cape
for
the
occasion.
Meanwhile
Kirsten
Dunst
and
Jessica
Chastain
kept
things
pretty
in
dainty
floral
dresses.

’60s
Renaissance

The
last
several
Gucci
collections
have
nodded
to
the ’60s
redux
that’s
happening
all
across
the
fashion
landscape
right
now,
and
the
spring
season
doubled
down
on
the
decade’s
influence,
cementing
it
as
the
key
reference
point
to
know
for
2025.
It’s
no
secret
that
Jackie
Kennedy
is
a
longstanding
muse
of
the
Italian
house,
including
the
very
own
Jackie
1961
bag
named
after
the
late
First
Lady,
and
this
collection
was
a
full-on
homage
to
the
core
codes
of
her
style.
Mini
skirt
suits,
wide-brimmed
sun
hats,
driving
gloves,
and
wraparound
sunglasses
are
all
key
pieces
that
contributed
to
an
overall
sense
of
retro
glamour.
If
there
were
any
question
about
the
most
influential
decade
in
fashion
now,
Gucci
boldly
set
the
record
straight:
the ’60s
are
so
back.

Gucci
Rosso,
Continued

De
Sarno
introduced
the
Gucci
Rosso
shade
during
his
debut
collection
for
the
Italian
house
last
year,
and
since
then
the
deep
oxblood
hue
has
become
a
brand
signature
to
be
found
across
ready-to-wear,
bags,
and
accessories.
Spring
2025
marked
his
sixth
runway
collection,
and
the
brand-defining
color
was
ever-present.
It
showed
up
on
leather
peplum
jackets,
glossy
Jackie
shoulder
bags,
delicate
lace
dresses,
and
logo-embossed
maxi
coats.
In
addition,
this
collection
continued
on
several
hues
from
Fall
2024,
namely
olive
green
and
bright
lime
shades
and
it
also
featured
a
pop
of
tangerine
hues,
which
could
indicate
where
color
trends
are
heading
in
2025.
Overall,
the
designer
sent
a
clear
message
with
the
color
story
this
season.
If
you
were
considering
investing
in
a
burgundy
item,
rest
assured
the
hue
will
only
continue
to
be
relevant
far
into
next
season
and
beyond,
as
long
as
Gucci
has
anything
to
say
about
it.

New
It
Accessories

Whatever
Gucci
is
doing,
we’re
always
keeping
a
close
eye
on
the
accessories.
This
runway
debuted
a
number
of
key
pieces
that
are
just
brimming
with
It-item
potential,
and
we’re
already
hearing
buzz
about
them
throughout
the
industry.
First
up
is
the
Gucci
73,
a
brand-new
bucket
bag
shape
complete
with
the
horsebit
detail
on
the
side.
We
saw
this
in
black
and
olive-green
iterations
and
are
already
filing
it
away
as
a
future
spring
It
bag.
There
was
also
an
east-west
version
of
the
Gucci
Bamboo
1947
bags
that
featured
lucite
handles
and
coordinated
with
the
bamboo-style
necklaces
and
bracelets
that
finished
off
many
of
the
looks.
Then
came
the
skinny
boots
and
retro
Jackie
O-style
sunglasses.
Wide-brimmed
hats
complete
with
a
horsebit
print
also
stole
the
show.
Come
spring,
we’ll
be
keeping
a
close
eye
on
these
new-season
accessories
and
no
doubt
shopping
accordingly.
