Free Falling: Two Iconic Gucci Handbags Are Transformed In The Cruise 2025 Collection

FREE FALLING
For its Cruise 2025 collection, Gucci goes back in time to revive classic handbags, evoking a sense of liberation. “I like taking something that we think we know and breaking away from its rules, taking it as far as it can go, without ever distorting it; bringing it towards its opposite and finding harmony,” notes creative director Sabato De Sarno. With creativity flowing freely, two iconic Gucci handbags — the Gucci B, which debuted in the mid-1950s, and the Gucci Blondie, introduced in the 1970s — transformed this season.
