An estimated 1980s GUCCI double-breasted Italian wool blouson.
A special acquisition.
GUCCI, the pinnacle of luxury—a name that needs no introduction.
GUCCI was founded in 1921 in Florence, Italy, beginning as a purveyor of fine leather goods—travel luggage and equestrian accessories.
Often referred to as the "origin of brands," GUCCI was the first to inscribe the designer's name upon a garment as a guarantee of quality.
The Old GUCCI pieces crafted under the Gucci family's stewardship—particularly from the 1970s through 1980s—remain remarkably coveted. Collectors worldwide regard them as works of art.
From that era comes this wool blouson.
The buttons align in two columns—a proper double-breasted construction.
Navy wool grounds this piece, while the Italian tricolore catches the eye—a singular garment that speaks to GUCCI's Florentine heritage.
Fastened fully, the double-breasted silhouette asserts itself with quiet authority. Yet fully open, the expansive lapels possess their own handsome presence.
The simplicity of detail—hand-warmer pockets at the waist alone—contributes to an overall refinement.
The lining, adorned throughout with the Italian flag, offers a touch of personality without excess.
For those seeking restraint with a subtle sense of play, this piece fits precisely.
Marked size 50, this is a generous fit, accommodating broader frames with ease.
Worn loose, it settles with natural authority.
The condition is impeccable—minimal wear, no notable damage.
It remains entirely wearable and ready for use.
Among GUCCI pieces, Old GUCCI items bearing the family's hand are rare.
For those who value authenticity, such particulars matter.
Equally suited to regular wardrobe or serious collection.
Items of this caliber appear infrequently. If you have been searching, this warrants consideration.
