Gucci’s Fall 2025 Show Draws on ’60s and ’70s Jet-Setters
Fashion has been ping-ponging between two stylish eras for the past few seasons: the mod jet-set ’60s and the louche, bohemian ’70s. Whether it’s our nostalgia for quote-unquote simpler times or a craving for larger-than-life glamour, the retro express doesn’t seem to be slowing down: This season at Gucci, the design team split the difference, looking to both decades for inspiration.
The show opened with Justin Hurwitz wielding the baton to conduct his original composition. The green-carpeted show space, complete with a runway shaped like the famed interlocking-G logo, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, soon filled up with latter-day Audrey Hepburns in abbreviated mod shifts with oversized buttons or front pockets, accessorized with scarves wrapped around jaunty caps. The Studio 54 contingent came through in pieces like a shimmering disco jumpsuit with subtle logos, a burnt-orange pussy-bow dress, and a backless lamé gown. And a very of-the-moment transparent motif was woven through the proceedings, whether in lace-inset slipdresses and gowns, or see-through beaded skirts.
The color combinations were bold: bright green mixed with purple, or pale pink set against red, along with pops of chartreuse and blue. The accessories were, unsurprisingly, a standout, especially the oversized, sculptural gold pendants and chokers, the ladylike box purses, and some unexpected fuzzy bags and shoes. (The colorful tights trend was also in evidence here, if you’re looking for a quick and easy way to Gucci-fy your look.)
Daisy Edgar-Jones, Jin, Julia Garner, Yara Shahidi, and Jessica Chastain were among the big names sitting in the front row. Plus, there was White Lotus season 3 representation from Parker Posey and her onscreen son, Sam Nivola. But perhaps the biggest stars on hand were the members of the design team, who strode out in matching green sweatshirts to take their bows.
