Everyone’s wearing colourful bags right now, so it stands to reason that the new Gucci 1947 range, especially in solid colours, will fly off the shelves. They take inspiration from the Bamboo Bag – in post-war 1947, traditional materials were a sourcing nightmare and Guccio Gucci and his Florentine artisans decided to use the lightweight and durable bamboo for the handle of a new bag which went on to become an icon. Vintage sales of these bags rose after last year’s film, House of Gucci. This season’s tribute comes with interchangeable leather straps. Also, nine international creators were invited to present their interpretation of this revisited icon via photographs, illustrations and videos. They range from Maddalena Arcelloni to Samson Bakare (featured). Bags from $2550 on the international website.
