What makes the Gucci GG Marmont matelasse bags a cult favourite?
COVER STORY / 2019-08-14
The popularity of Gucci handbags is such that shoppers wait season by season to own a coveted GG bag. Founded by Guccio Gucci in Tuscany, in 1921, this luxury house is a font-runner in the designer-bag game. With the brand’s domination in the luxury and leather goods market over the last few years, it’s interesting to see that people are actually ready to pay top dollar to get their hands on specific Gucci styles (vintage included), even at the resale levels. The brand pays really great consideration to detail on each and every bag that it releases. In the last few years, Gucci has seen an impressive upturn like no other designer labels.

The dream team of designers at Gucci is resurrecting the archives to launch new vintage-inspired collections every year, thus, contributing to the increasing popularity. The Gucci styles that are reigning supreme at the moment are the Gucci GG Marmont bags, especially the matelassé. The popularity of these 2016 collection Gucci bags has skyrocketed through 2018 to 2019, owing to the growing demand for Gucci monogram handbags that are more versatile than some of their latest collections. When we talk about the Marmont bags, we’re talking about the must-have bag, that makes a great on-trend option that will also hold its value for seasons to come.
GUCCI Gg Marmont Mini Leather Quilted Backpack
Every season we see different designer houses launch ‘IT’ bags that take over the luxury fashion scene and this season, the Gucci GG Marmont matelassé cuts through straight to the pole position. What we also love a lot about Gucci is the broad spectrum of pieces in the collections for varying budgets. The medium size matelassé Marmont bag retails for about only $2600 and a mini version retails for about $1900. Made in Italy, these matelassé chevron leather bags have a softly structured shape and an oversized flap closure with Gucci’s double G signature hardware. The chain strap can be worn as a shoulder and a top handle bag. The antique gold-toned hardware lends the ‘timeless’ and ‘mature’ look to this collection. Dimensions of the mini bag are 8.5″W x 5″H x 2.5″D, while that of medium bags are 12″W x 7.5″H x 3″D. The bag packs an Interior zipper and smartphone pockets with an open horizontal case for larger phones. The wallet in the matelasse collection has a snap button opening with six card slots, three open pockets, a bill compartment and a zip pocket for change.
The material of the Marmont matelasse bags is trans-seasonal and they come at a great entry price point for an iconic accessory that you can wear with almost every outfit. If you’re a big time bag aficionado, you likely already own one of these bags! The classic silhouette of the Gucci GG Marmont matelasse bags won’t go out of fashion anytime soon and its luxe leather will only improve with age. Sometimes the best things come in the simplest packages and the no-frills minimalist design of the matelasse bags proves the same. Keep scrolling to check out a variety of Gucci must-haves in action.
