As part of their new Spring/Summer 2012 Collection, Gucci has released silicone iPad 2 and iPhone 4 cases. Coming each in a series of colors, they feature the classic GG all-over pattern. Considering that it is Gucci, the 160 USD iPad case and 90 USD iPhone case are priced quite well. The question now only is, if you want a rubber case from a brand like Gucci?

Sip Chat Chow created a fun series of ‘Cereal Couture’, turning the most normal breakfast food into luxury items. The series includes the Burberry Flakes, Cartier Crunch, Gucci Loops, Chanel Cocos and Louis Vuitton Charms. All in all the cereal boxes are well executed and mix the iconic logos and patterns of the respective brand’s with traditional breakfast cereal design.

After a preview earlier this year, we take a closer look at the new ‘Gucci: The Making Of’ Book by Rizzoli.

“An unprecedented publication showcasing Gucci as never before, including thought-provoking essays, commentaries, and authoritative anecdotes along with previously unpublished contemporary and archival photographs. Published in conjunction with the opening of the new Gucci Museum in Florence, Gucci is the ultimate celebration of the world-renowned fashion house. Told through a loose grouping of words, concepts, shapes, and moods, the book tells its story through new conceptual forms and the free links between images, symbols, and objects. Conceived by fashion curator Maria Luisa Frisa and W magazine editor in chief Stefano Tonchi, this comprehensive volume showcases the genius of the fashion house through an exclusive lens with inside looks into the inspirations behind the design.

This gorgeous book designed by Arnell offers an in-depth look into Gucci’s origins, identity, influence, and innovation, including fabrication methods and appropriation of signature materials, past and present, and its influence among high society and Hollywood. Featuring contributions by Lynn Hirschberg, Judith Clark, Katie Grand, Peter Arnell, Maria Luisa Frisa, and a wide variety of additional important commentators, the book is a heartfelt and personalized tribute to the heritage and influence of this iconic, multifaceted brand.”

The book comes in a beautiful leather make-up with the Gucci monogram all over, wrapped in the iconic Gucci green/red ribbon. It is now available for purchase.

After a helmet, here comes not the bike from the Bianchi by Gucci Collection. The bike features a black carbon fibre frame, as well as a black seat and handlebar, featuring the iconic diamond pattern. The Bianchi by Gucci logo is featured on the seat and the frame. Of course this Italian team-up does not come cheap – the bike is now available for 14′000 USD. But, not too bad, if you consider that they included a water bottle, headlights and a wheel reflector.

Italian bike maker Bianchi and luxury goods brands Gucci get together on a bike helmet. Presented are both a white and a black helmet, featuring the signature green/red/green branding by Gucci on the upper with integrated sun visor. Coming in two sizes, the helmets can now be purchased from Gucci for 890 USD.

For the re-opening of the Italian luxury brand’s flagship store in the Tokyo Shinjuku area, they are releasing a Tokyo limited edition sneaker collection. Gucci creative director Frida Giannini has designed overall 8 exclusive sneakers for the occasion, some in more classic Gucci colors and materials, others looking completely different and therefore more interesting. Each sneaker comes with a special tag, marking the occasion, as well as a silver military Gucci tag.

Since a while now we have been seeing luxury brands pick up in the heritage trend as well. While they do seem a little late now, they do without a doubt produce some compelling product. It might have little to do with their own heritage, but a brand like Gucci can of course produce a very high quality boot, which is the case with their new Duck Boot, which just released for Fall/Winter 2011.

A mix of waxed cotton and leather are featured on the upper, sitting on a gum outer sole. The color combination is beautiful, details are on point and branding has been thankfully kept rather subtle. All that said, we can actually not really say anything negative about the boot, we are just doubting that there is a big market for it. Would the guy that is into duck boots, buy them from Gucci?

With the rise of the iPhone and later on the iPad, pretty much every luxury fashion brand jumped on the band wagon and started offering cases and sleeves for these new digital devices. Which one to take or if to take at all a case, which can turn out to be more expensive than the device itself, is not an easy decision.

We bring you a round-up of cases from Pierre Hardy, 3.1 Philip Lim, Louis Vuitton, Tod’s, Fendi, Prada, Gucci, Martin Margiela, Bottega Veneta and others.

By now we have all gotten used to see all rubber shoes that actually look pretty good. Native has been making big moves in that market segment, offering a range of well designed styles, bringing out all time classics in rubber.

Rather unexpected, yet interesting, Gucci has now released their classic moccasins in rubber. They come in navy and green, featuring rubber uppers and outer sole and of course the classic Gucci silver details on the tongue. Priced at 195 USD, these are now available from Gucci stores around the globe and online here.

Fiat and Gucci continue to work together on the popular Fiat 500 city car and present a new convertible version. Once again, just like in their first collaboration, the new Fiat 500C by Gucci, comes in white and black colorways, in this case featuring in both versions a black canvas roof. The roof features the iconic Gucci stripe branding. Look out for a release in the coming months, with a starting price tag of around 20′000 Euros.
