Gucci Announces the new Gucci Bamboo 1947 Campaign Featuring Liu Wen

Supermodel Liu Wen stars in the House’s latest campaign dedicated to the Bamboo 1947, distinguished by the curved bamboo handle whose hand-crafted nature makes each bag unique. Shot and directed by David Sims, the campaign portrays two emblematic characters in an intimate relationship – the kind that develops between an individual and a loved object. Stills and video depict the bag as a symbolic keeper of secrets, an allegorical treasure chest of cherished sentiments.

Fashion as Ritual: First Monday in May 時尚的禮儀

Before getting dressed in the morning, I wade through the dresses, blouses, skirts, jackets, scarves, hats, shoes and handbags clogging my bedroom closet and still can’t find anything to wear. It’s become a daily ritual. My tastes change with the fashion. Or is that I expect too much from my clothes? One day I wear ruffles and feel pretty, and the next a camouflage print to channel my inner warrior. My friend has trouble packing her suitcase for overseas trips because she simply cannot anticipate what her mood might be on the road. “I dress to express what I feel,” she tells me. “Or what I want to make happen on a given day.”
