May 14, 2020: Colour is the key to the spirit of freedom and playfulness in Gucci’s Towards the Sun collection. The new range interprets the House aesthetic in a manner that evokes the idea of light and warmth, with a range of pastels reflecting a mood of joy and optimism.
The collection has the benefit of being both formal and informal, offering highly versatile designs suited to many occasions. Refined, elegant and contemporary, the Towards the Sun pieces – which comprise of bags, shoes, ready-to-wear, accessories and small leather goods – have a characterful, informal spirit and are enriched by the presence of Gucci House motifs and hardware.
For the GG Marmont 2.0, the flap bag with shoulder strap comes in three sizes (mini, small and medium), the camera case in two (mini and small) and there are also two sizes of the top-handle bag (mini and small). For the first time, the House features the metal GG detail in shiny silver. The fresh colour palette ranges from unicolour baby pink, light blue, pastel yellow and water green, to a multicolour version which blends them all together. Exotics complete the offer, adding a refined touch: crocodile for the small shoulder bag, and python for the same style and small camera case. The exotics come in all the pastel colours, and their shiny finish gives these pieces a distinctly luxurious look. There is also a group of GG Marmont 2.0 pieces in white diagonal quilted leather with contrasting blue piping. This classic colour combination of white and blue has a nautical look, and each piece features the gold twisted torchon Double G buckle detail. As well as being offered in bags – the mini shoulder bag and mini bucket bag – the blue and white treatment is also applied to a wallet on a chain, other wallets, a pouch and card cases.
