Within a hall of illusionistic mirrors at the brand’sHub in Milan, Creative Director Alessandro Michele presented his latest Gucci Fall 2022 RTW collection, Exquisite Gucci.

Alessandro Michele wrote, “I use the metaphor of the magical mirror to approach the phantasmagorical power of fashion, a scared power that radiates from the surface of the fabric. And there I work, on this tactile surface, through cross references, alliterations, loopholes and grafts.”

Details reveal a punk energy with delicate embellishments—sparkling rhinestones, little eyelashes, metallic foil—an exquisite take on subcultural makeup. Mirroring the collection, the beauty looks are defined by unusual and understated colors accentuating lips while nails are ultra-shiny, painted with signature nail polishes and adorned by bold jewelry.
