Gucci
It’s nearly impossible to talk about designer handbags without mentioning Gucci. As one of the world’s premiere designers of high-end luxury leather goods, Gucci has been around since 1821. Founded by Guccio Gucci in 1921, the House of Gucci was originally based in Florence, Italy.
Over the years, Gucci significantly expanded its company as well as its vast array of products. It hit a bit of a slump in the 70s and early 80s, and even fell into bankruptcy at one point. However, Gucci bounced back in the late 80s and by 1995 they were a hugely successful, publicly traded company, and once again considered a powerhouse of the fashion industry. In 2001, Gucci’s expansion reached new heights, as it acquired a percentage of Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, Di Modolo, and also formed a partnership with popular English fashion designer Stella McCartney.
Today, Gucci handbags are sold in high-end boutiques all around the world and are recognized as a staple of luxury fashion. Gucci handbags are among the most desired as well as counterfeited in the entire world.
Countless notable celebrities have been seen carrying Gucci handbags, including Paris Hilton, Gwen Stefani, Vanessa Minnillo, Mariah Carey, and several others.
