The Italian fashion house expands its Gucci Places network with the addition of six new special destinations in Italy, South Korea, and the United States. The idea is to encourage people to discover interesting stories about these places and so become part of a community
The iconic fashion label Gucci invites world travellers to explore six locations that have inspired the house over the decades.
Joining the Gucci Places are the Dapper Dan Atelier Studio in New York City; the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles; the Gucci Garden and the Boboli Gardens, both in Florence; the Antica Libreria Cascianelli in Rome; and the Daelim Museum in Seoul—these locations were selected because they reflect the taste and values peculiar to the House.
1. Dapper Dan Atelier Studio
New York, USA
The new Dapper Dan Atelier Studio is an homage to the couterier’s original boutique. Located in a historic brownstone in Harlem, it offers bespoke garments, custom-made by private appointment, using special Gucci fabrics, prints, embroidered patches, and hardware. Dan, renowned for the made-to-order creations he designed for celebrities, athletes, and hip-hop artists in the ‘80s, appeared in Gucci’s Men’s 2017 Tailoring campaign, shot by Glen Luchford.
