The Diamante canvas is known by all: a remarkable fabric and an essential motif created by Gucci, the canvas is today in the hands of the brand’s current creative director, Alessandro Michele. And he’s promised to turn it into an absolute emblem. Printed on a more refined style or a steel version, the Diamantissima is reinvented upon contact with its original fabric time and time again. One of the rare designers to be able to mix vintage, streetwear, chic silhouettes, sportswear, and a touch of Italianness is now endeavoring to make Gucci watches the new favorite accessory of women everywhere. All this and more with a backdrop of Italian joviality.
To incarnate this essence, as mischievous as it is life-saving, Florence Welch tells how she was chosen: “I was a collector at heart, and when I met Alessandro Michele, our passion for jewelry immediately brought us closer. I think what he’s creating for Gucci is truly magical. I’m thrilled to be a part of it.” For Alessandro Michele, everything is a matter of androgyny and the Italian Renaissance. This 42 year old Italian designer extols the confusion of gender.
Next July, three new bold releases will be taking place, with singular aesthetics that demonstrate all of Gucci’s talent once again. A PVD-coated yellow gold watch with a black lizard leather bracelet, or a steel milanese-strap version. Two different sizes will be made available: 27mm and 32mm. This style is both sophisticated and pure, with a calibre that recalls that exigence sometimes results in sleek minimalism.
