Technique, form
and fabrication reigned on the runway at Gucci's S/S20 show with Michele
bringing his fascination with the contemporary market’s objectification of
fashion itself. A showcase of freedom of expression, power and sexual energy featured
on looks with strait jackets, clean cuts silhouettes, loosely fit garments and
lace detail. His models boldly pranced the runway dressed as Sexy Mistresses
with chain detail on sunglasses, chore necklaces and fishnet tights. The collection whispered something of a
dominatrix nature along with the tassel in hand and bags with statements written
on them such as 'Orgasmique'. There was a clear emphasis on the body in the way the clothes
hung on the women; so effortlessly and the shapes fell and flowed beautifully
echoing the message of freedom and empowerment behind the collection.
