Gucci Purses - Page 2

Variety and luxury

In 1950, Guccio Gucci passed away and left his flourishing business to Rodolfo Gucci and his sons. Soon after, new Gucci shops were opened in Paris, London, Palm Beach, and then into Hong Kong and Tokyo. Audrey Hepburn, Jacqueline Kennedy, Maria Callas, and the Duchess of Windsor were the types of upper-echelon ladies that were acquiring Gucci purses and every lady in the world wanted to be just like them with their own Gucci purse.

More recently, Tom Ford and Domenico De Sole have transformed the Gucci Company into a major player in the fashion market offering not only their ultra-famous clothing and luggage, but also including perfume, watches and jewelry.

Gucci purses became wildly popular with the iconic bamboo handle handbag that was introduced in the 1940s. Gucci purses exploded onto the international scene and now have evening bags, messenger bags, mini bags, shoulder bags, top handles and totes in a wide variety of colors, designs and materials available on the market. Many Gucci purses come with the trademark Gucci plaque, the symbol of sophistication women are looking for in a quality purse today.

An evening bag is an essential accessory for every woman’s wardrobe, and Gucci evening bags are the perfect Gucci purses to go with any evening event you may be attending. Gucci bags vary from evening clutch bags that are dainty and easy to carry around when attending any event to a more luxurious evening frame bag with alluring hardware.

Messenger bags add a little more functionality with owning a Gucci purse. These single over the shoulder strap purses with zip-top closures are more for every day use and functionality with lots of inside space.
