GUCCI'S BAMBOO LEGACY
Elle India
|February 2025
With every iteration, this classic accessory has risen to new heights of innovation while retaining its timeless appeal, notes Anamm Inamdar

In the world of luxury fashion, few accessories have achieved the iconic status of the Gucci Bamboo 1947 bag. Introduced in the aftermath of World War II, this handbag showcased innovative craftsmanship and marked a pivotal moment in Gucci's design history. It is celebrated for its distinctive curved bamboo handle, a feature that emerged from a time when traditional materials like leather were scarce. This creative pivot not only demonstrated Gucci's adaptability but also solidified the brand's reputation as a pioneer in luxury craftsmanship.
