History of Gucci

The house of Gucci as we know it today was established in 1921 by Guccio Gucci as a leather goods/luggage store in Florence, Italy. Many of Guccio’s Italian clients were local horse-riding aristocrats, and their demand for riding gear led Gucci to develop its unique Horsebit icon and many other symbols of equestrian origin. Mr. Gucci developed an understanding about how much the world of horses meant to the rich and privileged, and thus aspired to use equestrian imagery in many designs. 

Gucci Fabric

Gucci is known for creating their most popular styles in a variety of fabrics. Here, we will go into detail about several popular Gucci fabrics and textiles, such as original GG canvas, Guccissima leather, Diamante, and Flora.

GUCCI GG CANVAS

Established in the mid 1960s and an instantly recognizable as a symbol of luxury and leisure, the Original GG canvas diamond pattern transcends style and seasons. Crafted out of durable woven canvas and commonly joined with leather trim, the GG canvas is a customer favorite and a great staple for years to come. 

GUCCI VINTAGE WEB

First created in the 1950’s in red and green, this strip of fabric was another equestrian inspired design derived from a saddle girth. The saddle girth is a piece of equipment placed on the saddle in order to keep it in place, this was also referred to as a “Web”. Throughout Gucci’s history they have utilized this signature look in a variety of materials and colors. 

GUCCI GUCCISSIMA

 Guccissima in Italian literally means the “most Gucci.” The Guccissima pattern features the interlocking GG logo embossed in 2006 by Creative Director Frida Giannini. 

GUCCI MICROGUCCISSIMA 

An adorable mini version of the classic Guccissima, this style can be found on current styles and is made in classic styles as well.

GUCCI DIAMANTE

Originally created in the mid-1930s, the Diamante pattern was first woven onto hemp and used on luggage. What started as an innovative solution to pre-war leather shortages became the Gucci’s first iconic print and precursor to the famous GG logo. Now created in canvas and textured leather.

GUCCI FLORA

Inspired by a personal request by Grace Kelly in 1966, the now famous Flora silk print was created for the Monaco princess. This print was then reimagined by Frida Giannini in 2006 and translated on bags, shoes, and small leather goods. Though not well received by critics, the Flora pattern was deemed a success by fashionista’s. The pattern is still being used today in a variety of colors.
