Gucci By Harmony Korine

Florentine fashion house presents the new limited-edition photographic book curated by film-maker

and screenwriter Harmony Korine. Famous for many movies like the 1997 film Gummo, Korine

proposes different pictures of Pre-Fall 2019 collection, using as a set the wonderful scenarios of

roman cities Pompei and Herculaneum.

If the intimate connection between the new face of the brand curated by roman designer Alessandro

Michele and the old ruins and myths of ancient times wasn’t clear enough, this book will clear up

any doubts. The link between the past’s symbols and motives with the brand’s contemporary

clothes is indeed what nowadays makes Gucci unique in the world, which shows not only the

creative excellence of the designer but also it spreads a crucial message about the importance of the

past in shaping the future.

This interesting project shows even further Gucci’s interest in communicating the eclectic spirit and

the multiple facades of Florentine fashion house, and at the same time the importance of cultural

and historical sites in the world.

The book will be available at the Gucci Garden in Florence and at the Gucci Wooster Bookstore in

New York in the beginning of June.
