Gucci Cruise 2019.

On the runway maybe looks like little bit overloaded but in realy life Michele's Gucci is simply great. Every piece is an artwork and every piece is perfect tailored.
I'm starting to wonder if i didn't have too much faith and hope for Alessandro.
Believe it or not, i don't expect every Gucci collection to look the same because in my mind, Alessandro has the talent to really refresh his aesthetic.
I feel like Gucci is the real place where the show take away the attention from the clothes. To be honest, this is a great show for such underwhelming clothes and i'm not talking about if it selling or not because we know that it is selling. I want fashion and i have certain expectations from designers.
He is a one trick pony at this point and it is sad because i've somehow liked his work. I'm a bit tired of that vintage-mess...
This just looks like a pile of stuff ready to be sold. He is presenting his collection in Arles and yet, nothing about it evoke the spirit of the place. The clothes are the same and he can basically present them anywhere.
At least MGC (who is less talented than him) tries to adapt her prints to the various locations.
I'm a bit tired/annoyed by the overt-commercialism of Kering brands as of late. The fact that Gucci is presenting at PFW for the S/S season is another proof of that. It's all about powerplay and competting with Vuitton and Chanel.
And i must say that i'm starting to find Gucci tacky in a bad way.
As for the clothes, i like look 16 and 28, the big black sunglasses (very Lanvin from the Alber era) and the menswear, even if it's very Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent S/S 2016.
I like Alessandro but i'm bored. Most disappointing resort collection this season.
