As NY Fashion Week drew to a close the world’s largest Gucci store was opened at Trump Tower, Fifth Avenue. There to cut the ribbon were Frida Giannini, Gucci’s creative director, CEO Mark Lee, Trump Tower owner Donald Trump and Gucci’s North American President Daniella Vitale. The flagship store holds significance as the first Gucci store was opened in New York in 1953. This new store was designed solely by Frida, with no assistance from architects.
To commerate the grand opening the creative team designed these gorgeous “Gucci Love NY” bags, which were a huge hit with customers. In coming weeks, coffee drinkers along the streets surrounding the store can show their allegiance to Gucci with their very own “Gucci Love NY” branded paper coffee cups. All proceeds go to Playground Partners and Patrons of the Central Park Conservancy (going towards the care and maintenance of the playgrounds in Central Park).
Take a tour of the new store with one lucky invited guest (and new owner of the above bag) Susie from Style Bubble . No Fair.
