Gucci Medium Messenger Bag

In 1921, Guccio Gucci opened a leather goods company and small luggage store in his native Florence. Though his vision for the brand was inspired by London, and the refined aesthetic of English nobility he had witnessed while working in the Savoy Hotel, his goal on returning to Italy was to seamlessly align the classy sensibility of England with the unique skills of his native Italy. Specifically, his ideal was to use the skills of the master craftsmanship of local Tuscan artisans.
While the Gucci brand, in itself, has unique symbolism in the world’s fashion stage, Guccio Gucci’s initials were first used in the early Sixties – as either single or double Gs – as squared-off fastenings for bags. The iconic logo was transferred soon after into a diamond-shaped pattern woven into the best-selling cotton canvas luggage, the GG monogram transported the company’s fame, quite literally, around the globe in the much-photographed company of movie stars, aristocrats and socialites.

Reconfigured and deployed in innumerable designs, the eternal GG has appeared and reappeared over time, merged into a circle, back-to-back, inverted, and abstracted. It’s been reinvented in silver and gold, burned into luxurious velvet, embossed into leather, stamped onto suede, printed on silks, woven into jacquards, and used in patchworks created using luxurious crocodile and lizard.

The Gucci medium messenger bag carries the brand’s more contemporary trend, with the Gucci logo embossed into its brown leather. This bag is not only versatile but allows for a trendy, progressive look but also encapsulates the classic Gucci style.
