A Short History of The House of Gucci
Tue Nov 30, 2010 5:38 am
Guccio Gucci. The Long Road to Glory.
Gucci is a brand created in Italy in early 1900. The founder of the brand Gucci («The House of Gucci») was Guccio Gucci. Gucci was the son of an Italian craftsman. He was born in 1881 in Florence. His father sold straw hats made by him. However, the son began to produce horse harness. The workshop was called “The House of Gucci”. But it did not work for long. Soon Guccio went to London. In London he began his career at London’s Hotel “Savoy”. There he served as a waiter, dish washer and gofer. But Guchio had access to expensive luggage (including wardrobe) of rich guests, forming, thus, his vision of elegance and style. It was here that he conceived the idea to create a line of fashion. But it took him a little less than half a century to realize his dream.
