The collections of the Italian fashion house are indeed not easy to miss – they stand out with a combination of excellent tailoring and an abundance of colours and patterns.

Gucci:
exclusive or inclusive?

It’s impossible to discuss the logo without mentioning the name that has changed the history of American fashion (and not only that). Dapper Dan was born in Harlem – a neighbourhood of New York full of contrasts and inhabited in large part by Afro-Americans. In 1982, inspired by his own travels, Dapper Dan decided to use his cleverness passion as the iconic trench coats - both illustrated with the same offered custom fashion described by the designer as an “Africanization of the premium European brand”. He turned products with monograms known to fashion fans into unique designs beloved by Black artists, in particular by rising stars of hip-hop. As time went on, he began to recreate the iconic fashion house logo patterns by himself, which caused him legal problems and forced him to close his business in 1992. The somewhat forgotten “bootlegging” designer made headlines once again when during the Gucci Cruise 2018 show one of the models wore a jacket that looked almost exactly like the one Dapper Dan designed for Diane Dixon in the late ‘80s. This obvious inspiration stirred uproar on the Internet, which resulted in a collaboration capsule collection, and thus the exaggerated designs appeared on the Met Gala red carpet. That wasn’t the first time Gucci showed that Balenciaga x ADIDAS times and is able to not treat its own house codes too seriously.

In 2016 the brand partnered with an artist that used its iconic and blend in with the crowd, while printed baseball caps soon became G in a sheet while creating a Halloween costume, which made him popular on Instagram. He used to say that he will use the logo until the Italian fashion house sues him or hires him – and he got what he wanted. The collaboration included viral bags that had the word REAL “spray-painted” above the Gucci logo. Today, no one is surprised by reinterpretations of the world’s top brand logos recreated by street artists or even referencing… cartoon characters.
