Artistry and romance dominate the latest Gucci campaign. Set against various London backdrops, award-winning photographer and filmmaker Nan Goldin captures Debbie Harry and Kelsey Lu in an intimate, atmospheric London night. Whether in an iconic London cab or a moody hotel room, Goldin and De Sarno harmonize their distinctive visions, encapsulating the creative essence of Gucci.
„We Will Always Have London“ is defined by Goldin´s extraordinary documentary style, which sets the tone for the entire campaign. The city, renowned as a hub for music, art, and culture, serves as the foundation of the creative vision. It also nods to Gucci´s own history, as the brand´s founder, Guccio Gucci, once worked as a liftboy at The Savoy Hotel in London.
Though Debbie Harry and Kelsey Lu represent distinct generations, it is precisely this contrast that unites the campaign. Gucci, long celebrated for its fusion of past and future, finds perfect symbolism in these two figures. They embody the timeless appeal of the Gucci Blondie bag, a piece that has been continuously reimagined since its debut.

At the heart of the campaign is the Gucci Blondie bag, a staple of the House since its introduction in the early 1970s. The reinterpretation retains the heritage codes of the brand while offering a fresh, modern take. Central to the bag´s design are the two interlocking Gs, positioned face-to-face, which serve as a tribute to the brand´s father. Combined with the bag´s distinctive silhouette, these elements have made the Gucci Blondie a signature piece, reflecting the boldness of the 1970s.
Crafted from refined leather and showcasing exceptional artisanal craftsmanship, the new collection emphasizes quality, durability and sophistication. Each piece varies subtley in appearance, with specific oil treatments ensuring extraordinary softness and a natural shine. 

Available in mini, small, medium and maxi sizes, the new Gucci Blondie bag collection offers a range of materials and colors to suit diverse tastes. A detachable shoulder strap on each design provides versatile styling options for any occasion. Wether featuring the leather logo or the enameled brass version, the Gucci Blondie bag stands as a testament to the brand´s heritage and commitment craftsmanship. 

Each of the Gucci campaign protagonists brings something of herself to the looks. Their gestures and expressions enhance De Sarno‘s vision for the women’s wardrobe.
The Fall-Winter 2024 collection itself is a landscape of harmonious contrasts: wool coats and slip dresses adorned with delicate embroidery, soft, earthy tones, and unexpected bursts of color. Each look plays with proportions and clean-cut silhouettes. 

The exploration of the House’s heritage continues in accessories. Pieces are inspired by narrative, recalling the atmosphere in the era of its origins. The new Gucci B bag takes center stage in the Fall-Winter campaign. With a relaxed and oversized silhouette and medium-length shoulder strap with double snap hook hardware, this style evokes the aesthetic of a series of archival predecessors, first seen in an artisan’s notebook from as early as the mid-1950s.

The new top-handled GG Milano handbag by Sabato De Sarno is also featured in the campaign. The new bag celebrates Milan for its art, fashion, and design. The style of the back is also a personal reflection on the new chapter in De Sarno’s life, his arrival in Milan. The city is a source of everlasting inspiration for the Creative Director which reflects in his narrative for the House.

The timeless Gucci Jackie in new color iterations continues to explore the House’s heritage. And the half-moon bag grounds the Creative Director’s contemporary vision of day-to-night elegance.

Directed by the talented duo Ariel Schulman and Henry Joost, this documentary promises an exclusive peek behind the scenes of the creation of the groundbreaking Gucci Ancora fashion show.
