Gucci Spring Summer 2014 Runway Collection

For the Gucci spring summer 2014 ready-to-wear collection Frida Giannini found inspiration in the first modern artistic movement of the last century : L’Art Nouveau.

Mixing floral elements (à la Horta), most typical for the style, with a geometric conception of nature (à la Mackintosh), she gives in strong colours (like borrowed to Josef Auchentaller) a new interpretation of what Art Nouveau stands for : dynamism, elan vital, blossoming, all theses forces who give birth to spring*.
The infinite movement, the symmetric element, the feminine curves, the stylized motifs,
they all take part in expressing the individuality in an industrialized society, of the artist who conceived these mysterious and enigmatic new forms.

We invite you to shop at Gucci.com Art Nouveau outfits from the just mentioned collection.

*Ver Sacrum.
Wieder draussen im weiten All
Wird es Frühling.
( …)
Aber in stillen,
Geheimnisvoll umzirkten Zaubergärten
Blüht die Kunst.
Dort, in ewigem Sonnenlicht,
Schattenlos überwipfelt,
Hauchen den schweren Duft,
Leuchten in durchsichtiger Irispracht
Weitkelchige Liliaceen und Tulipanen.
Falter, breitflüglig,
Stahlblau und flammenroth,
Umschweben sie,
(…).
(Ferdinand von Saar, in Ver Sacrum, 1, 7, Juli 1898)
