gucci eyewear wayfarer framed glasses item | The History of Gucci

Founded by Guccio Gucci, the Gucci was established in 1921 as a brand that produces leather products and luxury bags that were mostly inspired by equestrian sports. But like many startup companies, it took Gucci a while to gain traction in the market. The company spent three decades before gaining prominence in the fashion world.

Two years after the Second World War, Gucci introduced the Bamboo bag as the company's answer to the short supply of leather materials. They thought of using Japanese bamboo to create one-of-a-kind bag handles. Also, that same year, Gucci launched its first tagline, "Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten."

In 1952, the Gucci loafer was presented before the fashion community. Guccio Gucci passed away in January of '53, and in the same year, the company opened its first store in the United States, while a shop in London was launched in '61.

In 1970, Gucci ventured into another product line and introduced clothing and fragrances. But during the '80s, the founding family suffered from feuds and disagreement. It led to their ouster from the company in 1993.

The brand was relaunched after the crisis with 'Porno Chic' props. Gucci was purchased by the French company Pinault Printemps Redoute, afterward known as Kering, in 1999. Gucci became an iconic 'geek-chic' brand in the 2010s.

For 60 years, Gucci slowly evolved as an authority in the world of fashion. In fact, Gucci's footwear has been worn by notable people such as celebrities, millionaires, and fashion stars. Hailey Baldwin was seen wearing a pair of Gucci loafers and a vintage-inspired Gucci bag. Vanessa Hudgens was also seen strolling the streets on her black Gucci mules, while Sienna Miller paired her black and white stripe shirt and jeans with red Gucci loafers. As a fan of shoes with a chunky silhouette, it is no secret that the bejeweled Gucci Flashtrek is part of Billie Eilish's footwear rotation.
