A richly symbolic piece from Gucci’s 2017 output under Alessandro Michele, this plaid dress merges traditional tailoring with the house’s maximalist mythology. Executed in a saturated green, blue, and red plaid, the silhouette is defined by a fitted bodice, long sleeves, and a softly flared skirt, punctuated by a crisp ivory Peter Pan collar and coordinating cuffs.
Ruffled shoulder panels add sculptural drama, while the hemline is intricately embroidered with mirrored tigers flanking a coiled snake and heart motif—iconography emblematic of Michele’s Gucci, where power, romance, and fantasy collide. A concealed back zip and self-tie waist sash refine the fit while maintaining an air of theatrical ease.
At once scholarly and subversive, the dress exemplifies Gucci’s 2017 aesthetic: narrative-driven, archival in spirit, and unapologetically expressive.
