Gucci × Assouline: A Storybound Icon

The newest release from luxury publisher Assouline is not just a book—it’s a tribute to one of fashion’s most storied maisons. Simply titled “Gucci”, the volume chronicles the evolution of the Italian house through a curated lens of imagery, design, and archival storytelling.
Wrapped in Gucci's own archival textiles and bound to collector-grade standards, the book celebrates the brand’s journey from Florentine craftsmanship to global fashion authority. It includes rare visuals, historic campaigns, and insider reflections—offering readers a glimpse into the house's layered identity.
As Martine Assouline explains, “This isn’t just a monograph—it’s a love letter to creativity, daring, and the cultural imprint of fashion.”
The book marks yet another thoughtful collaboration between Gucci and Assouline, known for elevating the world of publishing into the realm of collectible art. For fans of heritage, design, and storytelling, this is a volume worth displaying—and preserving.
In Riyadh, the Gucci × Assouline book is now available in limited quantities at Assouline Via Riyadh, select Gucci boutiques, and assouline.com.
