Gucci Chic
From the red carpets of Cannes to the streets of Seoul, Gucci continues its reign as the fashion house of choice for icons, influencers, and it-girls across the globe. In fact, the heat is on and the month of May has seen an elegant explosion of Horsebit hardware, monogram medleys, and jaw-dropping silhouettes… and some of the world’s most stylish celebrities are leading the charge. TheGlitz presents your front-row ticket to who wore what, where, and why it mattered.
The Gucci Diva Julia Garner: Dual Drama in the Riviera
Emmy-winning actress Julia Garner, best known for her breakout role in Ozark and her captivating transformation in Inventing Anna, was the very definition of coastal couture on May 13 in Cannes, France. Spotted earlier in the day in a Gucci Pre-Fall 2025 blue suede dress adorned with Horsebit details, Garner completed her look with Gucci sunglasses and a pastel yellow GG Marmont shoulder bag, merging vintage glam with Riviera-ready charm.
But as the sun dipped and flashbulbs fired at the 78th Cannes Film Festival’s opening ceremony, Garner delivered full-throttle drama in a Gucci black silk chiffon draped gown, its long sleeves layered over an embroidered sequin underdress. Anchored by black leather heels, the look was all shimmer and shadow—perfectly capturing Gucci’s dark romance.
Davika Hoorne: Airborne Elegance
Thai superstar and fashion darling Davika Hoorne, who commands attention whether she’s on screen or on the runway, turned an airport terminal into her personal runway. On May 13 at Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, Davika wore Look 7 from Gucci Spring/Summer 2025, a structured ensemble that proved travel style doesn’t mean sacrificing statement. Her accessories? A Gucci Softbit maxi shoulder bag in taupe leather paired with a Gucci Porter cabin trolley, blending practicality with poise.
Lee Jung Jae: Street Style King
Award-winning actor and director Lee Jung Jae, internationally recognized for his gripping role in Squid Game, showcased cool nonchalance with just the right amount of edge in Seoul on May 13. Dressed in a Gucci black leather bomber jacket, a crisp blue shirt, and white pants, his off-duty ensemble was finished with Gucci sneakers and a Gucci Chroma duffle bag in gradient blue GG monogram… a masterclass in tonal luxury with a street-style twist.
Jannik Sinner: Athlete Meets Artistry
On May 12, rising tennis sensation and Global Brand Ambassador Jannik Sinner served up off-court style in Rome, Italy with a custom creation: a Gucci Ophidia backpack in white GG monogram leather, featuring the iconic Double G hardware and his initials. Fresh, clean, and bespoke… it was a sartorial ace.
Daisy Edgar-Jones: Soft Power
British actress Daisy Edgar-Jones, known for her magnetic roles in Normal People and Where the Crawdads Sing, brought polished ease to New York on May 8. Her accessories were doing all the talking: a Gucci Softbit maxi shoulder bag in grey grainy leather with the House’s signature Half Horsebit closure, paired with Gucci sunglasses. Understated, unfussy, and effortlessly elevated.
Alexa Chung: The It-Girl Returns
British fashion icon and TV presenter Alexa Chung reminded us why she remains a perennial It-girl. On May 1 in London, she carried a classic Gucci Horsebit 1955 handbag in black leather and styled it with a silk carré scarf printed with stirrup and Horsebit motifs… a nod to Gucci’s equestrian heritage, worn with her usual off-kilter British flair.
Jin of BTS: Denim and Drama
Global pop phenomenon Jin of BTS made a surprise appearance on stage during Coldplay’s Music Of The Spheres World Tour on April 25 at Goyang Stadium, Seoul. Clad in a Gucci Pre-Fall denim jacket and matching pants, his look was punctuated with Gucci Horsebit creeper shoes, fusing K-pop polish with rockstar edge. The moment? Iconic.
From Cannes to Korea, Gucci is indeed a vibe and a masterstroke of modern luxury. And in May, these stars didn’t just wear Gucci… they embodied it.
