Gucci unveils its latest line of Gucci Bamboo 1947 bags, where heritage elements are reimagined with a contemporary twist.
CARMEN SIN
Beating HEART

Hear ye, hear ye, Gucci is back with a new line of bamboo-handled bags. The latest collection strikes a fine balance: modish yet classic with shapes that are refined and colours, eclectic. The new palette is wide-ranging and the usual suspects—tan, white and black—sit alongside vivid alternatives: tangerine, emerald, marigold and a holographic silver, among others. As always, the historic top-handle purse is available in medium, small and mini sizes. This iteration is the first to feature interchangeable shoulder straps, every bag comes with two: a plain-coloured leather number, thin and muted, and a larger one in Gucci’s emblematic red and green striped pattern. The latter, instantly recognisable, is a departure from the typically logo-less aesthetic of the line.
