Gucci Just Took A Big Step Towards Inclusivity
Since Alessandro Michele took the helm at Gucci as creative director two years ago, the brand has transformed from respected design giant to one of the most exciting, innovative international houses of the moment. Gucci is the first luxury fashion house to join Parks - Liberi e Uguali, an Italian non-profit that aims to foster inclusive practices in companies, with a focus on sexual orientation and gender identity, per WWD. Gucci joins other global giants with operations in Italy like Google, Ikea, and Microsoft in committing to creating a workspace that's diverse, respectful, and safe for employees, no matter how they identify on the gender or sexuality spectrum.
