Gucci sets the catwalk alight with more than 120,000 LEDs

Via Gucci

Gucci’s Alessandro Michele ensured all eyes were on Milan today, rigging his mirrored runway with over 120,000 LED lights.

Held at Gucci Hub on via Mecenate – once the Caproni aeronautical factory, now the brand’s 35,000m2 headquarters – the AW19 collection featured male and female models striding down a 100m reflective runway, many of them in coloured masks.

Presented against floor-to-ceiling mirrors and rippling lights, Michele’s collection was a typically eclectic affair, contrasting punk with old school sophistication, block colours and dazzling prints, sharp-shouldered suits and shimmering dresses, fur collars, studded cuffs and flowing cravats.
