Earlier this year, Gucci relaunched its beauty offering, garnering significant media attention overseas. Now, Gucci Beauty is set to arrive in Auckland in just two months’ time, at the soon-to-be-opened David Jones in Newmarket.
The first instalment of the makeup line is a collection of lipsticks inspired by Hollywood’s Golden Age, evoking glamour and nostalgia. With creative vision from Alessandro Michele, the lipstick packaging takes inspiration from vintage makeup. He explains: “I thought back to the lipsticks I saw in my life, when I was little, my mum's lipstick, who was always inspired by the 50s, and I wanted to give it the most powerful meaning, that of the Hollywood divas and the mythology of cinema, which first put the lips in the spotlight.”
The first chapter of Gucci’s new beauty offering, which includes three different lipstick formulas, will be available from David Jones Newmarket from November 1.
