AW1997 Gucci by Tom Ford Padded Down Fill Red Biker Jacket

(FOR SALE) An Autumn Winter 1997 Gucci by Tom Ford Padded Biker Jacket.

Gucci is an Italian luxury label founded in 1921, known for its leather goods and iconic double G interlock logo. Gaining popularity among celebrities in the 1950s-60s, the maison would fizzle out and faced financial difficulties in the 1980s. However, 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.

Tom Ford’s usage of the color red was a prominent display of power, in which he claimed Gucci’s signature red and green motifs with pride. This gorgeous biker jacket from Gucci’s Autumn Winter 1997 collection is a complete objection to the idea of traditional luxury, glamorizing a more casual aesthetic and honing it in an elegant yet rugged mannerism. This jacket is a size medium and is in pristine overall condition with no flaws whatsoever. Here is the opportunity to purchase an iconic piece from Tom Ford’s final years at Gucci.
