Cruising Into High Style
Have you seen the Gucci Women's Cruise 2009 Runway sets? Absolutely gorgeous!!! If I had enough cash and space I would own each and every single piece. Not only are their models top of the line but it so very clear that their products are as well.
My absolute favorite is the giada shell/stripe printed fil coupe lurex full gown with knot detail. It is an ankle length dress with a beautiful pattern all the way through. The mixture of greens, black and cream is stunning and will easily complement any combination of skin and hair tones. The length is perfect for a leisurely stroll through that quaint little island town or a romantic dinner for two on the beach. To finish it off Gucci added a deep plunging neckline with a knot detail.
My second favorite is the orange silk shantung front-tie dress. Talk about cute!!! This Runway dress is almost too cute for words really. The color is bold and bright but classy enough to be worn by women of all ages. The cut is fun and flirty and would be especially cute worn with Gucci's high heel espadrille wedges in light brown suede, which was paired with it for the runway show.
My final pick from this runway show would be the nectar shell printed jersey boat neck dress. It is perfect for an 5 course meal followed by a night partying in the VIP lounge of your favorite club. This dress is elegant yet sexy. While I do like the white sandals Gucci paired it with for the runway show I would much prefer to see this dress paired with a pair of chocolate brown stilettos, it would make such a stronger impact. This is also the perfect dress to wear with a cute pair of leggings and a pair of ballet flats to run around doing errands in.
All in all, I give the Gucci Women's Cruise Runway show two thumbs up! They have once again captured their normal elegance, sex appeal, fun and flirty attributes we have all come to love to own and love to wear.
