THE ORIGIN OF GUCCI'S ICONIC TROMPE L'OEIL BOW

This is the origin of the iconic trompe l'oeil bow that characterized many dresses designed by Alessandro Michele for Gucci. The embroidered bow dress worn by Angelica Huston dates back to 1970 to which certainly or unintentionally (who knows) the talented Roman designer was inspired.

FLAMENCO INSPIRING DRESS

The traje de flamenca (flamenco dress) usually is trimmed with layers of ruffles on both the skirt and sleeves. The dress is typically brightly colored, usually in black, red or and may be either plain or patterned, with the most famous being the polka dotted traje de lunares. They come in a variety of colors, plain or patterned, with short or long sleeves, and more or fewer ruffles. This folkloric outfit has inspired numerous fashion designers, among them Victorio & Lucchino, who have their own line of trajes de flamenca. Others who have been influenced include Yves Saint Laurent, John Galliano, Valentino Garavani, and Tom Ford.
