Did you by any chance watch Gucci's 2009 Resort collection, held at Villa Aurelia in Rome, via live webcast? If not, I'm here as your eyes for the show, which celebrated the 70th anniversary of the Gucci store in Rome.
So what does one serve up for a 70th anniversary? Nothing but grandness all around. Parts of it were very Gucci – slick, sexy — but it also incorporated a glamorous bohemian style with long, flowy maxi dresses, each with a unique print. Striped pants, leather jackets, pleated mini dresses, and some hints of nautical also saw their time on the catwalk. While ultragirlie maxi dresses painted a very feminine picture, in contrast, crisp trousers demanded a mannish power; this incorporation of two extremes is becoming quite common in fashion. And why not? It's set to appeal to all types of customers. Brava!

3wowowow!
4LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Such a great mix of feminine, flowy looks and tougher, edgier looks. I want it all...
5I think everything in the collection is pretty and...safe.
Not necessarily something I love to associate with Gucci. It feels more like some sort of smash up between Carolina Herrera and Oscar De La Renta. I think that they do this type of resort wear best.
I miss Tom Ford, how could he leave when its so obvious the fashion game still needs him!
6That long dress with the shells on the chest, thats should be mine.
