Recalling a fond memory from his youth, Alessandro Michele debuted the Gucci Cartoleria, a temporary pop-up fashioned after a stationery shop, which he loved to frequent when he was younger. The collections featured include writing utensils, paper and notebooks all with Gucci’s unmistakable branding.
