After Banarsi, Kota and Kanjeevaram, women will soon be able to add Gucci sarees to their wardrobes. The Italian luxury brand is open to working on traditional Indian clothing and creating a limited domestic collection using local tradition and design.
“We are open to the idea of working with Indian designers and traditional Indian clothing and creating a limited edition India collection, though I cannot say when. It will depend on how the Indian market for Gucci grows,” Gucci chief executive officer Mark Lee said, adding that the company was open to the idea of hiring Indian designers in its design centre in Italy.
