Gucci What??

At Lh we love the art of fashion, but couldn’t help but be a bit put off by Gucci’s Fall/Winter 2019/20 presentation at Milan Fashion Week. Spikes, face-obscuring masks, large metal jewelry covering ears and eyes. An elliptical show space with mirrored floors, seats and ceiling, half in darkness and half in brilliant lighting. Vicious dogs growling followed by religious chants flowing into your ears. Can you imagine yourself there? To some a wholly offensive scene. While to others the symbolism of Alessandro Michele’s art intrigued and delighted. Masks concealing and revealing identity just as clothes do. Defining and defending us.

Hot off the racist blackface mask embarrassment, Gucci’s dark, theatrical and heavy performance felt a bit tired and perhaps just too over the top.

But nonetheless the Gucci power reigns on as Michele continues to shock, offend, inspire and delight onlookers around the world.
