Perhaps bracing herself for the harsh winter ahead, head Gucci designer Frida Giannini has gone ahead and made sure that girls can still go out partying in style. That’s what her fall ready-to-wear seems to suggest- luxe clubwear.
Most of the looks followed the exaggerated top and slim leg silhouette. Girls looked edgy in leather over-the-knee and thigh-high boots.
