In addition to the stunning show, Sabato has produced a special publication for Gucci Ancora called Gucci prospective. The publication will follow each Gucci collection, presenting a dialogue between art and fashion. “It’s another story about everything, but this time, it’s told with joy,” Sabato said. The first volume of“Gucci prospective” is a collection of milan-themed works by artists on literature, music, film, fashion and history.
From Lucio Fontana’s cut canvas, to Pietro Agostini, Riccardo Banfi, Mirko Albini and Nicola Giuducci’s photographs of Milan nightclubs, to the poetic critique of Sara Leghissa, Vincenzo Agnetti and Giulia Niccolai, different artists have created their own forms, the description of Milan as a city of beauty and desire has captured the alluring landscape of the city from the postwar period to the present day. Stefano Collicelli Cagol, Centro per l’arte contemporanea Luigi Pecci director and curator of the works selected with Sabato, explains the vision of volume 1 in the preface, “This is a love letter for Milan.”
You may be curious about Sabato by now. In fact, as early as his first ad after the post, the outside world has felt that the designer has been hidden behind the scenes is not simple. In August, fashion lovers cheered when Gucci released a Marina Chain jewelry franchise starring supermodel Daria Webowy. Daria, who was a hit on the catwalk in the 2000s, has since announced her retirement. This time she’s back for her old friend Sabato, who posted a rare 20-year-old photo of the two at IG.
