Emilio Pucci

I have been a long-time admirer of Emilio Pucci designs. With bright and cheerful prints, who isn't a fan? Emilio Pucci has been designing bold and exotic prints since the 1950's. After he passed away, his daughter continued to design for the Fashion House. Nowadays, a "vintage Pucci piece" is just as coveted as the current lines by the Italian fashion designer.

Pucci pieces are rather pricey, and it's considered a privilege among many to own a Pucci dress. Several designers have imitated the prints of the famous design house, but it will never be like owning a true Pucci piece. You can always locaed a signed "Emilio" in Pucci fabric used to make the clothing:

Here are some pieces from the current spring/summer 2010 collection:

And some fabulous vintage pieces:
