The 1953 Horsebit Loafer Collection by Gucci

Two rings and a rod: one shoe and one story. Gucci is inaugurating a very special collection in the new year, its “1953 Collection”, that celebrates the 60th birthday of its famed Horsebit Loafers. These flexible, comfortable, esquestrianly aestheticized, and decidedly refined moccasins are an allegory of the brand itself: recognized as “emblematic” in 1986...

The Tank Folle by Cartier

Shaking things up with a reversible dial in 1932 under the name “Basculante”, the 30s also saw the introduction of the “Asymétrique” and the “Oblique”. One of the more original models was the “Crash” of the 60s, but Cartier has never lost sight of its true essence. There’s a trace of reminiscence here, for it...

The Labo Collection by Éric Bompard
