Bring the glam of Gucci to your own home

Global audiences have been going gaga for Gucci over the past few weeks, thanks to the huge amount of publicity around the hit film ‘House of Gucci’, starring Lady Gaga, Adam Driver and Al Pacino. So much so that there has been a 131% rise in searches for ‘Vintage Gucci’ since the film was released on the 26th November, according to figures from Essential Living
