Gucci – Symbol of Wealthy Life!

The founder of the brand – Guccio Gucci – was born in 1881 in the Italian city of Florence. At the age of 23 he opened a small leather shop, which received a proud name "House of Gucci”, manufacturing leather items for horses. However, difficult relations with his father, prompted the young designer to move to London, where he got employed in the elite Savoy hotel. Inspired by the refined style and luxury of the British aristocrats, he came back to the native city and adds bags and clothes for horse jockeys to the lineup of the items sold in his shop.

Over the years, Gucci opened many stores across Italy, as the assortment expanded and the number of brand’s admirers was growing. Among the celebrity fans of Gucci even were Jacqueline Kennedy and Queen Elizabeth II. Gucci’s six children all helped his father in their family businness as they were growing up, with his son Aldo contributing the most.

In 1993 the company lost its «family business » status, as all the heirs sold their shares. However, the cooperation with the legendary Tom Ford and Frida Giannini has raised the brand to a whole new level of fame.

How do the Gucci glasses look? Flawless style, elegance and usage of the best materials – all these features are peculiar to these spectacles. Gucci sunglasses and frames can’t be named an epitome of vanguard design. They are simple and laconic, offer sophistication and age-old quality standards. Yet, the company offers many shapes and styles, so everyone can find the model to his liking.

The iconic brand is moving in step with the time – thus, together with one of the leading companies on the eyewear market, Safilo, Gucci manufactures glasses frames from cellulose acetate, which is marked out by high ecological properties. A separate attention should be given to the capsule collection of eyewear, which features floral motives.
