London – Harrods’ show windows to display Gucci’s enchanted garden through August

The Italian fashion house Gucci and the iconic London store Harrods, have entered into a collaboration, where through the entire month of August, Gucci will bring its botanical bounty to Harrods, taking over windows, display areas and digital channels.

The brand partnership will be evident both inside and outside the store. The sixteen windows facing the Brompton Road, as well as interior installations, will bring two exclusive Gucci stories to life – the launch of the first fragrance under the new creative direction, Gucci Bloom, and the arrival of the innovative House DIY programme. Visually, the window displays will be connected through the memorable motifs associated with the Gucci Garden.

ANAHATA - Bringing the Sheen Back to Filigree

It seems a wonder that something as beautiful as a Filigree object d’ art or jewelry should have faded from the collective psyche of the connoisseurs. It is a rare craft,honed and refined for millennia by a tribe of craftsman, who generations after generation have been doing nothing else but just this. The outcome is this beautiful dancing peacock, every single feather of its tail detailed in delicate silver wires of different thickness, curled and twisted in perfect symmetry, the wings and torso, the long neck covered in a lattice of leaves, floral motifs. This heirloom may belie its age, for it is not from the collection of a Royal of yore. This work of fine craftsmanship is from Anahata’s eclectic filigree offerings.

In a bid to revive the ancient heritage and its keepers, the craftsman, Anahata has brought the spot light back on filigree. Positioned as an ubér luxury brand,Anahata is bringing back the excellence in design and finish, so that the end product is of the same standard and beauty as that which was once coveted by kings and Nizams. For instance the Silver and Gold Ladies Clutch, with its expansive latticework, took 112 hours to finish. Two master artisans worked relentlessly to create this beautiful design and lace in silver and gold.
