Gucci 1973 Shoulder Flap Bag

Classically beautiful with superb vintage appeal and luxurious touch of classiness is how I would describe this flap bag from Gucci. I know we are only half way into the year but this could simply be in the top 5 of this year’s hottest bags. Price starts from USD2,100 for the leather version, USD2,900 for this python version (which I think is a steal!), USD3,550 for the lizard skin version and of course USD12,800 for the croco version.

Gucci 1973 Medium Shoulder Bag

This baby has got to be flying off the shelves!!! I had to double check the price tag of this bag when I first saw but it is true that for whatever reason, Gucci has priced this full python skin shoulder bag for USD1,800. However, the great price tag is not the only reason this bag worth a second look. The vintage and timeless appeal of this bag is worth every single dollar of the bag too. Put your money in it!

Gucci 1973 Small Shoulder Bag

The year 1973 might not have gone down Gucci’s history as an important year but Frida Giannini seems to have found bags from the house’s archive dated back to the year and decided to reissue them for Fall/Winter 2010. While I am a sucker for vintage anything and clearly these bags bear that apparent vintage look, I still think they need a little extra touch to make them look more suitable for the 21st century than the 70s.

The Gucci 1973 small shoulder bag is very simple, with only the GG logo gives it away as a Gucci bag. The one featured here is made of python, it is also available in suede. It looks like a perfect bag for clubbing to me. Price starts from USD680 for the suede version and up to USD990 for this python version.
