Gucci and Pomellato team up for a fine jewellery collection that redefines Italian luxury
W Magazine
Gucci’s latest foray into high jewellery isn’t just a showcase of sparkling stones and sculptural forms—it’s a historic partnership that brings together two titans of Italian design. Introducing Monili, the house’s first jewellery collaboration with Pomellato. The collection, unveiled in May 2025 on the Gucci cruise 2026 runway in Florence, marks a seamless fusion of Gucci’s storied leatherwork with Pomellato’s fine jewellery heritage.
Named after the Italian word for “jewels,” Monili marries soft leather with gleaming precious metals and gemstones. Each piece—from a black leather minaudière outfitted with a white gold wrist strap encrusted in diamonds to a cuff bracelet linked with a bold diamond-pavé fastener—signals wearable opulence with a sculptural edge.
Drawing inspiration from Pomellato’s archival designs from 1984, knotted necklaces and bracelets soften their materials with curved silhouettes and interlocking loops. Together, they speak to the collection’s ethos: contrast as a conversation starter—between past and present, softness and strength, high fashion and fine jewellery.
