GUCCI released it’s Gift Giving 2016 campaign film, created by artist and director Floria Sigismondi. Gift Giving products are placed in a fantastical, dream-like Gucci Garden, suggesting a perfect blend of myth and reality

Starring Premier girls Polina Oganicheva, Maryna Polkanova and Nika Cole

Referencing the pure and elemental beauty of the natural world, Gucci’s Creative Director Alessandro Michele has planted a thriving Gucci Garden where wildlife and flora appear in romantic and colorful prints and as embellishments throughout this collection. This year’s Gift Giving campaign takes its cue from the Gucci Garden with a rich, vibrant, and lyrical film inspired by the story of the Garden of Eden.

Beautiful plants and exotic animals such as a tiger, a zebra, birds, bees, bunnies and even a unicorn, live gracefully in this oneiric version of the Gucci Garden. Additionally, the snake, tree and apple combine to create a prelapsarian world of natural plenitude in which youthful Adams and Eves exist in innocence and harmony. The romantic and esoteric atmosphere, combined with Donizetti’s “Il Dolce Suono” create a hypnotic intensity.

Voguing is a form of dance that was created on the streets and drag balls of Harlem by a subculture of young mostly poor, gay, trans, black and/or Latino’s in the 1980s

The Ballroom scene in which Voguing exists in is an art form that’s closely linked with ideas of fashion, luxury, and social and economic mobility.

In the past few years, the Voguing and Ballroom scene has seen a resurgence in its popularity spreading across the globe. No longer limited to members of American urban black and Latino gay communities it can be found as far away as Russia now. Historically the Ballroom scene included society’s most marginalized: minorities within minorities within minorities. In a world where they have been rejected, ballroom not only accepted these people for who they were, it celebrated them!

This resurgence in popularity is fantastic as many in the scene are finally getting the recognition that they long deserved. Though there is concern by some that with Voguing’s success in crossing over into the mainstream to communities of the “non-marginalized” that there is a risk the dance may lose some of its connections to its roots.
