Autumn Winter 2011 Gucci Bondage Strap Wool Turtleneck Sweater

(FOR SALE) An Autumn Winter 2011’ Gucci ‘Bondage Strapped’ Wool High Neck Sweater.

Under Tom Ford's leadership in the 1990s, Gucci experienced a major transformation, becoming a leader in fashion with a more sensual and daring aesthetic. Tom Ford’s entire rebranding of Gucci was masterfully marketed, presenting Gucci to the public with more emphasis on the ‘GG’ interlock monogram, alongside a much sharper, intrepid style that appealed to a new generation of consumers. It was for this reason that Ford’s recruitment to Yves Saint Laurent in 1999 was a perfectly aligned match. Spanning five years where Ford would direct for both Gucci and YSL, Ford would walk away from both successfully at their peaks, starting his own label in the same year of 2004. This era was hard to replace, but Frida Giannini stepping in from 2006-2015, keeping Gucci uniformed and trim. 

This beautiful turtleneck sweater is studded with eyelets throughout, capable of being adjusted to create cinching on the arms and body. This minimalistic uniform wear was something I admired heavily from Gucci before it became so maximally branded. Coming in a dark chocolate brown, this sweater has a wool blend material composition and is a tagged size extra large. In great overall condition with no flaws whatsoever.
