Gucci will stage its cruise 2024 at the Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seoul on May 16. The show, which was originally scheduled for May 15, marks the brand’s 25 years in the country as Gucci opened its first store in Seoul in 1998.
“Gucci was born in Florence, surrounded by history, art and craftsmanship, and from there it began a journey to bring the house’s vision of beauty across the globe,” said Marco Bizzarri, president and chief executive officer of Gucci.
He highlighted the ever-increasing strength of Gucci’s relationships with local communities and its support of local talents, projects that include the preservation of a country’s heritage.

We hope the collaboration with Gucci will help the world discover the true charm of Gyeongbokgung Palace even more, where the past and present coexist.
In November last year, Gucci had to call off its repeat Cosmogonie show in Seoul following the tragic Halloween crowd crush in the city that killed more than 150 people and left dozens injured on the night of Oct. 29. The Gyeongbokgung Palace was the venue of choice also for the Cosmogonie show, a repeat display of the collection unveiled in May 2022., lead singer of NewJeans, as its newest brand ambassador.
