The [Gucci](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/springsummer-2024) [Resort 2009 collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resort-wear-collection) has been unveiled, and as always with the Italian fashion house, it was a dramatic show of sartorial splendor. Each piece was fit for a luxurious suitcase en route to the South of France, with crisp white pants and patterned tops that mimic the elaborate patterns one would see upholstering cushions in a Monaco hotel. What really stood out, however, were the dresses that shouted Greek goddess meets gypsy. The free-spirited nomad look was perfected with long, flowing hair and smoky, bandit-like eye makeup.

The [cruise collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kallmeyer-resort-2026-collection) was displayed in the gardens of the Villa Aurelia in Rome, a seventeenth-century architectural stunner. The gallery shows some of the highlights from the show.

Below are link to more gypsy-inspired fashion collections, including one show which actually used real male gypsies on the runway.
