“GUCCI” 2018-2020 Horse motif argyle jacquard V-neck knit

“GUCCI” 2018-2020 Horse motif argyle jacquard V-neck knit

From GUCCI, founded in 1921 in Florence, Italy, and driven to keep evolving motifs derived from harness designs and traditional craftsmanship through the free sensibilities of each era, we present a piece that adds bold playfulness to a classic pattern arrangement.

Here, an argyle pattern composed in deep burgundy and soft ivory is woven with a lively horse motif and the brand logo—an intricate design that allows the refined charm of British style and the vibrant individuality unmistakably GUCCI to coexist.

What first captures the eye is the striking diamond pattern that spreads continuously from the front body through the sleeves to the back. Inside the burgundy tones, you’ll find warm brown horses, and inside the ivory tones, black horses—thanks to the color contrast, each motif stands out beautifully.

In addition, the GUCCI lettering woven here and there naturally heightens the brand’s presence even within a highly decorative pattern. It is a major appeal that it expresses the Maison’s history, which is deeply connected to equestrian culture, as a contemporary knitwear piece.

The design uses wool jacquard knitting, creating a soft, three-dimensional texture that differs from print and adds depth to the complex pattern. Furthermore, the neckline is finished as a deep V-neck, so you can enjoy layering with an inner piece while adding a pleasantly relaxed sense of ease to this ornate design.

The silhouette is designed with relaxed ease that provides room from the shoulders down through the body. Ribbed details in burgundy at the hem and cuffs help keep the overall look soft while sharpening the outline. The balance between a roomy form and a well-shaped V-neck is exquisite, and it’s equally appealing that you can fully enjoy the presence of the pattern while dressing it in a refined, elegant manner.

We estimate that this is an item from the Alessandro Michele period, around 2018 to 2020. As supporting evidence, in February 2019 the same colorway horse-pattern wool jacquard knit was registered in an overseas sales archive, and the argyle composition, V-neck, and rib specifications match. In addition, we can confirm the GUCCI logo and “Made in Italy” on the collar area, allowing the piece to be understood as a design that merges classic styling with free-spirited ornamentation—symbolizing the Maison of the era that Michele created.

It is recommended not only for those who typically appreciate traditional knitwear, but also for anyone who wants to add a subtle touch of individuality to their outfits, or who would like to enjoy motifs that evoke the brand’s history in everyday life. Because the colors and pattern alone provide a strong sense of presence, this is a piece that can be incorporated into your own style without any sense of fuss.

For styling, pairing it with wool slacks or wide pants with a beautiful drape enhances the knit’s vivid charm while resulting in a calm, modern mode look. Styling ideas such as layering a shirt to strengthen the traditional elements, or letting the pattern peek out from inside a long coat, are also wonderful.

For those who want to enjoy classic elegance and fashion with a playful spirit, regardless of gender—this is a piece we would truly like you to take home as your MOOD.
