Gucci 2009 Collection Is Fierce, Baby!

Holy Gucci 2009! The entire collection is 100% fierce with a capital F! Frida Giannini and the entire Gucci team have recently revealed the Gucci Resort 2009 collection and there is nothing else you can say except that all the pieces are marvelous and definitely trend setting! The 70’s inspired collection had mostly white, caramel, burnt orange, chocolate brown and blue hues. Bellisimo! (I seriously screamed with glee when I saw the collection!)

The collection had two themes: a hippie/gypsy-esque theme plus a nautical theme. Even if you’re not hitting the seas anytime soon, you will definitely not hesitate to don these winning outfits.

You have the choice of either striped or flared pants. For true blue hippies or hippie wannabes, on the other hand, you can choose among the pretty gypsy prints and flowing, feminine maxi dresses (which, by the way, are really popular these days).
