Appointed Creative Director of Gucci in January 2015, Alessandro Michele is responsible for all of Gucci’s collections and global brand image.
Born in Rome in 1972, Alessandro studied at the prestigious Academy of Costume & Fashion in Rome.
He forged his early design career inside F endi where he was Senior Accessories Designer. A rising talent, he was tapped by Tom Ford in 2002 and moved to Gucci’s London-based Design Office.
Over his 12-year tenure inside the Gucci design studio, Alessandro held a variety of roles. In 2006 he was named Leather Goods Design Director and promoted in May 2011 as Associate to then Creative Director Frida Giannini.
Passionate about interiors and décor, Alessandro in September 2014 took on the additional role of Creative Director of Richard Ginori - the fine Florentine porcelain brand acquired by Gucci in June 2013. He immediately reimagined the product offering and branding of the 280-year-old brand, repositioning it for the luxury market with new collections and a new store design template.
It was during the Gucci Men’s Fall/Winter 2015-16 runway show where Alessandro first revealed a contemporary new direction for the House. His full vision for Gucci emerged during the Women’s Fall/Winter 2015-16 runway show.
Alessandro’s innate talent and deep knowledge of both the company and its design teams enables him to quickly and seamlessly implement his new creative direction.
Alessandro balances strong leadership qualities with the ability to also carefully listen to his team and nurture their opinions and contributions. His passion and enthusiasm for his new role has inspired not only his design teams but also the company as a whole.
