But first, let us look into how it all began for the legendary fashion house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gucci: a brief history<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Rome wasn\u2019t built in a day. Gucci took years to gain its legendary status. And the fun part of it all\u2014both Gucci and Rome are in Italy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Founded by Guccio Gucci in 1921, the iconic brand had a humble beginning. The history of the brand begins with the birth of its founder in 1881. Born to a simple Italian family, Guccio Gucci was destined for great things. He moved to London and took a job as a porter in the Savoy hotel.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
At the Savoy, he became enamored with the high-quality suitcases he carried for his guests from all over the world. His career as a porter led him to understand high fashion and what luxury meant for different people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gucci returned to Florence with all the experience he had gathered in London and opened his own leather goods store in 1921. He put in all his experience along with employing skilled artisans to create some of the best finished products. Together, they beautifully handcrafted all the products with attention to the minutest details in the shop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Soon, Gucci\u2019s name began spreading like wildfire which led him to open two additional stores. Gucci, with the help of his three sons, opened the two stores in Milan and Rome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Within the next few years, Gucci established itself as one of the leading luxury brands in the world. Hollywood films stars posed wearing Gucci apparel, and the rich wanted to lay their hands on the leading fashion brand\u2019s products. From Elizabeth Taylor to Grace Kelly to Jackie Kennedy, all flaunted their Gucci clothes and accessories proudly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
With new stores opening in Tokyo and Hong Kong, Gucci spread its arms Eastwards in the 1970s. However, with the Gucci brothers fighting, the golden period for the brand seemed over. But, the appointment of Dawn Mello as the creative director ensured that the legacy of the great fashion house continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Gucci logo: Meaning and history<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In terms of luxury brands, the Gucci emblem is perhaps the most recognizable. The brand had operated without a logo since its inception in 1921 up until 1933.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aldo Gucci, Guccio Gucci\u2019s son, joined the family business in 1933 and made it his priority to give the family business a unique visual identity. Aldo finally combined the two \u201cGs\u201d from his father\u2019s initials to come up with one of the world\u2019s most recognizable insignias\u2014the double \u201cG\u201d logo. Aldo also ensured that the logo did not confuse anyone; therefore, he used the Gucci wordmark above the double \u201cG\u201d emblem. The Gucci logo has been a part of the brand\u2019s visual identity<\/a> ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
