Much like Alessandro Michele’s bold clothing collection, the decor features impressive and intricate motifs, luxurious velvet, plush, opulent hardwood, decadent paint, and fine handcraftsmanship; much reflecting the catwalk we collections we see on the runway.

 

The full collection features a selection of cushions, chairs, table trays, folding tables, a range of wallpapers in a mix of textures and prints, scented candles, wall dividers (because it wouldn’t be like Alessandro not to throw a touch of Renaissance into the mix) and porcelain ornaments – which are produced by Richard?Ginori, a?Florentine company founded in 1735. Decadent prints feature illustrations by?Alex Merry Art?as well as Gucci’s signature snake motifs and red and green colourway.
