We finally got a glimpse at the Gucci Spring/ Summer 2017 collection, and we’re absolutely loving what’s in store. The Italian fashion house’s upcoming collection features refreshing new purses that display some surprisingly dramatic details. The aptly-titled “Magic Lanterns” collection showcases a mixture of whimsical and oriental elements.

Classic styles like the GG Marmont, Sylvie and Dionysus have been revamped with new looks that are sure to punctuate your outfits. The bold oriental twist is a new venture for the label, thanks to Creative Director Alessandro Michele, who seems to be expanding the brand’s limits and aesthetics.

We think this new direction is quite brave and this unique collection is definitely splurge-worthy. These “Magic Lanterns” aren’t available online yet but you can shop the brand’s current season at Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue.
