Gucci Unleashes Exotic Firebirds @ Milan Fashion Week
By SENATUS News | 23 February 2013

Gucci's runway was lit up by exotic creatures with evening wear that featured a luxurious play of feathers and ferns on netting that evoked firebirds. The atmosphere, designer Frida Giannini said, was noir and fetish -- and leather, python and metallic sheens dominated the collection, with tightly fitting outfits paired with fishnet tights with a back seam and towering heels.

"The Gucci woman... is steely yet sexy, defining her discipline with femme fatale vices," said Giannini, describing a collection which hinged on sculptured small jackets, bustiers and pencil skirts, with leather lock cuffs.

Blacks and greys were brought alive by burnt oranges, wine purples and cerulean patterns set against midnight-blue backgrounds. A forest-green suit jacket pulled in sharply at the waist and worn over a metallic roll-neck stood out, as did the knee-high python leather boots.
