Gucci Debuts 'Beauty and the Bag' with Kate Moss
Gucci has launched an advertising campaign called 'Beauty and the Bag.' In the marketing materials, one witnesses the sultry posing of supermodel Kate Moss who fronts the Borsetto handbag and Emily Ratajkowski who is presenting the Giglio handbag. Imagery for this campaign was captured by the photography duo Mert and Marcus, while the video was directed by Bardia Zeinali.
Gucci's 'Beauty and the Bag' campaign presents the Borsetto in GG Canvas, brown suede, and black leather, while the Giglio appears in dark brown, black, and classic GG Canvas. Styling ranges from minimal to full GG branding across garments and accessories. This serves to reinforce the idea that when a handbag becomes integrated into a person's world, it occupies their mind completely.
Creative director Demna has described the relationship between the person and the bag not as opposites but as lovers, suggesting an intimate, almost romantic connection between the carrier and the accessories.
