Gucci is back in a major way, and around here we are calling it the "Gucci Effect". It is everywhere on the street style scene, and other designers are clearly being inspired by Gucci's luxuriously eclectic collections. With creative director Alessandro Michele at the helm, the brand has released an endless array of styles over the years. It inspired us to create a quick and easy guide for keeping all of Gucci's most popular styles straight. After all, we need to know what they are called before we can write out our wish lists, right?  

Gucci Dionysus Collection

The Dionysus collection features U-shaped, double-headed tiger closures, and is beyond chic. This structured bag has been a street style staple in all of its different versions. For the most part, this style is rendered from GG Coated Canvas aka Supreme canvas. The multicolored leather in the iconic colors Guccis is known for with star embellishments and a bamboo top handle sets the bag above apart from others. 

Sylvie Collection

Definitely a cult classic to remember, Gucci's Sylvie collection combines the brand's signature styling and Italian roots into the construction. Crafted in a variety of materials, the signature Gucci web sits underneath a large gold-tone chain while the recognizable silhouette comes in various sizes. Whether it's a crossbody, top handle, or satchel with strap options, this bag is the perfect addition to any collection.

Gucci GG Blooms Collection

Using the same coated canvas as the Dionysus, the GG Blooms Collection is embellished with printed flowers. We adore the color contrast of this style, and every piece we've seen is a total stand-out. You can find this style in many forms like crossbodys, totes, wallets, and even shoes.

The Gucci Soho is a collection of classic everyday bags that exudes Gucci style in every form. With the perfectly stitched interlocking GG's and various styles and colors, this bag is an investment that you will use every day for many years to come. 

Gucci Marmont Collection

The popular Marmont collection features a new rendition of the brand's logo. Instead of interlocking GGs, the Marmont Collection has side-by-side GG emblems. This collection comes in what feels like a million different colors and materials, but for a less trendy investment, we like the quilted leather one pictured above.  

GucciGhost Collection

GucciGhost falls under the trendy category, but nevertheless it is a fun collection and oh-so of the moment. Collaborating with the famous street artist Trouble Andrew, the print became a hit amongst celebrities and Gucci fanatics everywhere. It is made of either leather, canvas, or coated canvas and features a graffiti-inspired print. 

Of course, look no further when you are ready to sell your gently used bag so you can invest in one of these beauties... we have you covered
