Rich Luxury, From Gucci To Armani
The Gucci man has undergone a transformation under creative director John Ray, showing a darker, more romantic side at the Milan autumn/winter ’06-’07 menswear show.
The new Gucci man wears a heavy wool frock coat countered with a white, embroidered shirt and pinstriped pants.
This look was quite different from Dsquared’s fun-poking at British royalty, done with washed jeans, riding coats an biker boots.
Armani, on the other hand, put a detailed spin on luxury, showing heavy knits with crushed velvet coats and tailored suits, creating an intoxicating mix of textures and hues.
These were three very different collections with one common denominator – indulgent luxury.
