Earlier today, the Italian fashion house, which is currently under the creative leadership of Alessandro Michele, announced the launch of Gucci Décor, an eclectic collection of items with which customers can dress their own spaces. The idea is not to prescribe a particular decorative look, but to provide elements that allow for living spaces to be customized. The Italian fashion house also shared the news on their Instagram account, where they posted a series of illustrations by artist,Alex Merry, depicting the line.
Gucci Décor will be available to purchase online and at some Gucci and specialty stores starting in September. The collection will include cushions, candles, incense trays, chairs, screens, wallpaper, metal trays, and metal folding tables. The folding tables epitomize Michele’s opinion in that if you make pieces easily moveable, you can constantly dress and re-dress your environment, Gucci said.
Fragrant candles and beautiful incense trays represent the lowest end of the price spectrum, costing approximately $190. The silk screens however, which include a myriad of tessellated designs, including one blue and pink octopi print, are almost $30,000, making them the most expensive pieces included in the line. Interestingly, Gucci Décor will be displayed fluidly throughout the brands brick-and-mortar locations, rather than being relegated to designated areas.
