  • Gucci Handbags


    12 August 2009

    Owning anything with a Gucci name on it is an instant sign of status and wealth, and a Gucci handbag is a must have for any designer handbag collection.  The line was created by designer Guccio Gucci in 1921, and was revitalized by renown fashion mogul Tom Ford in the 1990s.  A monogrammed Gucci bag can be easily spotted by it’s webbed double “G” logo, which is usually done with dark brown lettering on beige fabric.  Almost any design from the Gucci handbag range can be found using this sophisticated print.

    Gucci has a couple of classic handbag styles under it’s belt.  One is the Gucci D-Ring, which is characterized by a large piece of D shaped hard wear, usually on the front and side of the bag.  Any of the monogrammed, basic satchels and totes are also considered classics, especially the striped totes.  More recently, the brand has seen success with the Gucci Indy handbag, which has a metal top handle, tassels and structured sides.  And next up on the horizon is the Gucci Hysteria collection, which features bags and clutches that all bode a new gold medallion that the line has currently unveiled.  This medallion pictures a knight holding a bag and a suitcase, which is meant to pay homage to when the labels founder worked as a bell boy in London.   The key Gucci Hysteria handbag is a rounded top handle bag with pleats, which comes in python, leather, metallic leather and prints.

    Always high brow and often haughty, Gucci is the bag of choice for those who aren’t afraid to flaunt their wealth.
