Turning Heads

Alessandro Michele of Gucci knows a thing or two about grabbing eyeballs. First came the orange timer invitation to the Fall show in Milan; then came the show itself that saw models carrying their severed head replicas, chameleons and coral snakes in their hands, and eyes pasted on foreheads and hands. The freakish creations were inspired by the 2016 movie The Tale of Tales by Italian director Matteo Garrone. Michele worked with technoartisans who produced the film’s visual effects.
