  • Gucci and FIAT to Unveil Fiat "500 by Gucci" During New York Fashion Week

In the year that sees the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy and Gucci’s 90th anniversary, these special editions of the Fiat 500 and 500 Cabrio have been customized by Gucci Creative Director Frida Giannini in partnership with Fiat's Centro Stile. “In the 50s, the Fiat 500 created a style revolution when it first hit the road. It quickly became the must-have car of its time. Travelling in style has also been at the heart of Gucci ever since Guccio Gucci founded his company as a producer of leather trunks, suitcases and handbags in 1921. So, when Lapo Elkann suggested the idea of this collaboration it struck me as a perfect opportunity to create a new modern travel statement in Gucci's 90th anniversary year,” said Frida Giannini. Inspired by neo-classic black-and-white film, the new black-and-white Fiat 500 and 500c by Gucci models are finished in unique eye-catching glossy pearl-glass paint. These two distinct colors complement one another: black with detailing in shiny chrome paired with interiors that contrast sharp black and white for a contemporary and racy attitude.

The challenge has been to find the right properties to fit into our portfolio; they must be ‘trophy hotels’ that provide a perfect setting for the high-level quality products, personal services and memorable guest experiences that remain constant throughout Dorchester Collection. Our latest addition, the 121-room Hotel Eden, suits such criteria flawlessly; its landmark status, her - itage and individuality complement the style and locations of our other nine hotels in the UK, France, Switzerland, Italy and the US.
