From Beige to Bold: Is Demna’s Gucci the Ultimate Veto on Stealth Wealth?
Description
After a few seasons of sartorial subtlety, the pendulum is swinging hard at Gucci. After parting ways with Alessandro Michele's maximalist 70's fever dream, Gucci decided to pivot hard into a pared down aesthetic under Sabato de Sarno—which led to catastrophic losses in revenue.
Now with Demna's highly anticipated debut for Gucci, the silence has been broken by a cacophony of maximalism, irony, and unapologetic self-expression. Join us as we unpack the Gucci lookbook—and what it says about the shift from quiet luxury. We're diving deep into the cultural psychology behind this shift: Is fashion reacting to a desire for post-pandemic escapism? Are we tired of blending in? And is this the definitive moment that signals a pivot away from 'less is more' to 'more is fabulous' for the next generation of style icons?
