Gucci Fall 2012 Runway Review
Continuing the harder-edged theme we first saw during New York Fashion Week, Frida Giannini, at the start of Milan Fashion Week, kicked things into high gear with a Gucci collection that was indulgent to a default—but with extra sex appeal. Inspired by the Pre-Raphaelite period, Giannini imagined her girls as Edward Burne Jones’s modern day heroines. The clothes were darkly romantic; an outstanding variety, the color palette was kept muted and elegant while masculine motifs were interspersed throughout. The Gucci girl isn’t trying too hard for fall; from the narrow black velvet skirts and military jackets to the stunning floral patterns and fitted sheath-dresses, it was all there for the taking. As for evening? The dark, almost Goth-like, gowns offered something for everyone: off-the-shoulder in emerald green silk-and-velvet to a chiffon burgundy dress with trailing ruffles.
