In the history of the Gucci fashion house for more than a century of history, there have been many ups and downs, intrigues and reconciliations, courts, scandals, divorces - in general, real Italian passions were in full swing. No wonder the famous tragedy director Martin Scorsese, who filmed Mario Puzo’s novel “The Godfather”, shot the story of this brand.
It all started back in 1904. 23-year-old Guccio Gucci, working as an employee in a London hotel, did not cease to admire the suitcases and bags of guests, but dreamed of making such things even more luxurious. Having learned the skill of a saddler, he opened a small shop in Rome, selling saddles, jockey boots and suitcases. Since then, production has continuously grown, and the number of admirers of the Gucci brand has also increased.
The period of strife and strife in the Gucci family began after the death of the founder in 1953. His children could not agree on a peaceful conduct of business, and a long period of quarrels and personnel shifts began, which lasted until the 1980s, when the founder’s grandson Maurizio Gucci stood at the helm of the company. Since then, intrigues have gradually been replaced by the release of new collections and the expansion of production.
Popular brands such as Yves Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Oscar de la Renta are fully or partially owned by Gucci.
Fashion trends
Over its nearly a hundred-year history, Gucci has repeatedly become a trendsetter, creating wonderful models of shoes. In each new season, new trends appear. For example, the last collection of the year includes samples of the old classics, complemented by elegant feminine details - high heels, contrasting stripes, patent leather.
Vintage and retro mixed in a new line of shoes - a mixture of materials with different textures and tropical prints in the form of vines and pineapples abounds.
The presence of decorative elements - frills, ruffles, buckles, stones, bows and gold threads make these sandals a little grotesque, but this does not detract from their merits as brand shoes - quality, reliability and comfort always come first in the production of fashionable Gucci sandals.
Models
Among the entire range of brand sandals, I want to highlight models on the platform. Do not think that because of their height, such shoes will hardly be comfortable. Models are designed in such a way that the block completely follows the contours of the foot and the female leg feels great in them. In addition, the rather high heel height is more than compensated by the platform - in such shoes you will always look stylish and feel confident.
For more modest persons, you can choose models on a wedge - in such shoes you will not lose additional centimeters of growth, but you will look more restrained.
Neutral gentle tones will help to complement the delicate image, in which you will be the main emphasis. And Gucci sandals will only slightly shade your beauty and femininity.
