MANILA, Philippines - Gucci’s line of bags and shoes for pre-fall 2013 belongs to the wardrobe of a siren dressed to kill.
“This is a contemporary femme fatale who relishes in her own dark mood. Armed with an invulnerable aesthetic, she has an elusive sensuality – like the protagonist in a game of pursuit,†says creative director Frida Giannini.
The accessories are clever and charming. These are timeless classics that meet today’s cityscape. True to the collection’s sculpted, geometric lines, the Lady Buckle bag evokes discreet minimalism with its boxy silhouette. The Bamboo Shopper takes Gucci’s iconic curved cane handle to new metropolitan heights. There are Fifties-inspired frames for sunglasses, wide leather buckled belts, t-strap stilettos, pumps, and Mary Jane heels. In the Philippines, Gucci is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists, Inc. (SSI) and is located at Greenbelt 4, Ayala Center and Rustan’s Tower Shangri-La Plaza Mall.
