To celebrate Gucci's 85th anniversary, creative director Frida Giannini has designed a limited-edition collection of handbags. Each collector's item features a redesigned version of Gucci's iconic horse-bit hardware along with a specially created enamel anniversary plaque. Among the new offerings are the Bridle print bag (printed canvas with saddle straps and horse bits) and a patchwork-style snakeskin bag, as well as velvet-and-silk and crocodile totes. Only two styles will be available in Hong Kong: the cotton handbag featuring iconic green and red stripes (above left; $16,500), and the small duffle in embossed Guccissima leather (above right; $21,250). The handbags will be available in August at Gucci, The Landmark, Central, tel: 2524 4492.
