Just in time for spring, Italian fashion label Gucci has released a lineup of floral footwear showcasing the brand's popular Tian print. With a variety of styles to choose from, this lineup appeals to all kinds of Gucci consumers.
Gucci's Tian print draws inspiration from Chinese landscapes depicted in 18th century tapestries. While loyal Gucci followers can recognize this pretty pattern as the delicate motif seen all over the brand's latest apparel, Gucci has now rolled out a line of sneakers which also showcase the fancy detail. The flowery designs are implemented on a variety of silhouettes from the casual slip-on to the retro high-top.
Each sneaker features a canvas upper with a white sole unit. While the low-top and high-top iterations note deep red laces, the slip-ons feature the same hue on the lining and heel tab.
