Luxe Crystal-Encrusted Beanies

Gucci Works with the New York Yankees on Piece for the FW18 Season

— January 8, 2019 — Luxury
Luxury fashion house Gucci continues its collaborative work alongside baseball team New York Yankees with a vibrant new piece for the Fall/Winter 2018 season. The latest design is a deep blue wool beanie embellished with a series of colorful crystals around the brimmed crown area, drawing inspiration from the label's Flashtrek sneakers.

As a nod to the baseball team, the front of the beanie boasts a largely embroidered logo patchwork-- its deep blue hue contrasts against the beanie with a white outlining. To further elevate its luxurious elements, the crystals are emerald-cut and feature hues of red, orange, and purple -- as the crystals come around the back, they get smaller and are cut in either a round or a pear shape.
