Since Gucci was founded in Florence in 1921, the house that began as a luggage company is today an icon of Italian craftsmanship and glamour. Still famous for its leather goods, such as Gucci's signature loafers, and for its canvas bags, the brand offers up a timeless sensuality in its men's and women's ready-to-wear collections, plus a highly coveted range of handbags and shoes, from boots to sneakers.
