In Gucci 2010 Spring Collection, the designer Frida Giannini sent out a fine collection of streamlined sportswear — what she called “mixing in new technology, carbon fiber and crepe de chine,” with more traditional skills of tiny tucks and strips and of treated leather.

The supreme sport influence gave a glamazon, tough-chic look to the familiar skinny Gucci silhouette, as the models strode out, ponytails swishing as they toted bold woven bags. Sporty mesh and Neoprene inserts were both athletic and stylish, while buckles like a pair of hands clinched belts at the sides of the waist. Along with harnesses and strapping, they gave just a subtle hint of bondage.

There is always a sense of tight control in Ms. Giannini’s collections, but this was a plus point in a chaotic season. As orange was introduced into the gray and white palette, followed by fuchsia in the geometric prints, Gucci seemed stylish and strong — right down to the black dresses, lighted with metallic embellishment. They put an end to the designer’s floaty, Bohemian 1970s looks and brought elegance to evening. More latest Gucci Products are available on Top1handbag.net
