At the Gucci AW15 show, a pair of Gucci furry slippers glided down the runway. The 70s-inspired show turned heads as jaws dropped over the sight of these peculiar slippers. Marked with the traditional gold horse bit detailing, the Gucci furry slippers are reason enough to abandon every idea you have on traditional footwear.
Alessandro Michele debuted his first collection for the Italian fashion house this season and he certainly made a lasting impression with the shaggy sliders. Whether its 70s chic you're going for or simply a design that resembles the feet of Chewbacca, this will not be the last of the Gucci furry slippers. These slippers will most certainly be the fashion pet during next season.
