Walking Through Demna’s Gucci FW26 Thoughts

First off, apologies about the wind. Sometimes I just want to fire off a quick video like this and it's not exactly the most professional setting - if it bugs you try to skip ahead a little bit, it's not constant. So after teasing us with two other drops, there is no way around saying that this IS Demna's vision for Gucci with his first runway show. I think it's safe to say that it is, as usual, divisive. And if anything I think I've seen more hate than love for the show. I'm mixed myself - I like that it's not just Baleniaga/Vetements 2.0, but it IS Tom Ford Gucci 2.0. For such an edgy and subversive designer to essentially just retread another designer's work... feels like a disappointment to me. But it's not all bad, I think there are some good looks and I think the real question is will it be successful for Kering. If Demna can pull Gucci out of their financial woes, I think it gives him more freedom to do what he wants in the future. But will this be enough? What do you guys think? Did you like the show? Are you fans of the old Gucci and do you plan to shop this in the future (or now! It's available online).
