Few designers have nailed the archival revival trend in the way that Gucci has, and the last five years have seen the massive return of the iconic Gucci Horsebit and the Gucci Jackie. Rich in House history but offering a contemporary appeal, the Gucci Jackie has become a staple in the handbag world, once again cementing its place in modern handbag history.
The perfect canvas for reinvention, it quickly found its way into the arms of celebrities, returning season after season. Similarly, the Gucci Horsebit 1955 also became a staple of style stars, closing out the 2010s with a bang.
And when Gucci delighted the handbag world with the return of another Horsebit bag from the 90s this year, the Gucci Horsebit Chain, stars embraced it as well. With Sabato de Sarno now at the helm of the brand, exciting changes are ahead, but one thing is clear: Gucci’s classics will remain.
As we close out the year and embark on a new era of Gucci, we’re looking at the many Gucci bags celebs favored this year.

I bought a Gucci canvas and leather GG bag in 2017 that mostly sat in the closet until recently. I’ve been using it a lot lately. It’s funny how you fall in and out of love with bags.
Thank you for sharing this! I was seriously considering selling one of my Gucci leather bags, but your note just made me hang on to it in the hopes that it will have its day/s.
