Set in the historic necropolis of Alyscamps in Arles, the Cruise 2019 show was imbued with references to punk, rock and gothic fashion. Models playing rock stars were intertwined with widows concealed under black veils, carrying bouquets of wilted blooms and cross pendant necklaces in hand, mimicking rosary beads used in prayer. The references to Catholicism and the afterlife ran throughout the collection, reimagined through the Gucci lens. The cross brooch is embellished with black enamel that is applied to each individual cell using the elaborate plique-a-jour technique, a vitreous enamelling process that dates back to the Byzantine Empire in 6th century AD and has been brought to jewelry by Art Nouveau artists. Metal with aged gold finish; Black plique-a-jour enamel; Pin closure 62mm x 94mm; Made in Italy; Gucci guarantees, internally and within its supply chain, respect for standards of Social & Environmental Responsibility in line with its sustainability strategy.
