Its creative director Frida Giannini has created a collection of five new handbags that represent the ultimate in the design house's luxury product offering. These bags relied on Gucci's iconic handbags models and a striking vintage print called "Rinascimento", which was inspired by the rigorous beauty of Renaissance motifs. Deep red and dark green flowers, thorny spires and crowns dance across a creamy canvas background with striking effect. It is what the conventional style is about. But Giannini marries the playful canvas print with a precious, wine colored crocodile.

In various models, the rich crocodile skin covers handles, sides, flaps and trims of handbags, complementing the whimsical print while adding and irresistible luxuriousness. Other precious skins like ostrich, python and crocodile powerfully display Gucci's luxury know-how. The five different handbag models, including the Jackie and the bamboo, are considered classic models in a modern light. Each bag is crafted in incredible soft leather, features beautiful details and visibly exquisite craftsmanship. Bamboo handles and clasps, artisan stitching, and subtle touches of gold hardware finish off the elegant look.
