The hustle and bustle of guests in the lobby; the never-ending twirl of revolving doors that greet and bid farewell; and the array of beaten luggages that accompany the merriment and opulence of jet-setters delighting in the spirit of travel. A spark was ignited and worlds collide. One wonders what went through the mind of Guccio Gucci as he observed and absorbed the myriad information obtained whilst working as a porter at The Savoy. But one thing is for certain; the experience, embedded deeply into the soul of Guccio, would culminate in the founding of one of fashion's most influential Houses to date: Gucci.
Upon his return to Florence, Guccio, who was heavily inspired by his travels, embarked on a new adventure. Armed with a visionary ambition and the knowledge he had gained during his journey, Guccio launched his own artisanal luggage atelier in 1921. And the rest, as they say, is history. Since its founding, Gucci has cemented its rightful place in the chronicles of fashion history, expanding and leaving indelible imprints along its creative trail. From creating luxurious pieces of luggage to equestrian accessories and innovative handbags made with new materials, the luxury brand weaved its way into the hearts and minds of leading fashionistas around the world. Now, as the Italian powerhouse looks back on its 102-year history, the House reminisces on its storied past and its ambitious future through a "cutting-edge exhibition in Shanghai dubbed Gucci Cosmos" a love letter to Gucci's Florentine roots and a paen to its enduring creativity", so to speak.
