In the midst of Gucci’s revival under Alessandro Michele, the fashion house has released a range of footwear and accessories that have been emblazoned with motifs of hummingbirds and peonies that hark back to the exoticism of the Orient of a century ago, and the aesthetic of chinoiserie that was all the rage during the Belle Epoque. The motifs have been printed atop the iconic Gucci monogram and jazzed up with hits of rich red in the laces of the sneakers, and leather paneling on the bags.
