During Paris Haute Couture Week, Gucci unveiled its most ambitious expression of high jewelry to date, presenting not one but three distinct collections that explore the outer limits of craftsmanship, innovation, and aesthetic storytelling.
From fine jewelry inspired by labyrinthine Italian gardens to sculptural timepieces and a gorgeous collaboration with Pomellato, Gucci continues to redefine what luxury looks like in 2025.
The house has added to Labirinti Gucci, its high jewelry collection introduced in 2024, with a richly layered assortment of 20 new one-of-a-kind creations offering an ode to the geometry of Italian formal gardens, imbued with color and movement. A standout: a close-fitting necklace with clean diamond lines that curve into a tanzanite and paraiba tourmaline centerpiece.
Additional pieces echo the collection’s romantic complexity, including a garlanded necklace of diamond and tanzanite suspending a 52.86 ct. aquamarine, and a rose-inspired ring with a 6 ct. aquamarine surrounded by diamond “petals.”
Gucci’s iconic motifs also get the haute treatment: The equestrian Horsebit is reimagined with sapphire on a bracelet, and rubies and tsavorites in earrings and a collar; the nautical Marina Chain is reconceived as a pendant necklace, with a 3.4 ct. aquamarine set amid diamonds and sapphires; a link necklace of multicolor precious gems, offered in a parure with a bracelet; and drop earrings anchored by spinels.
In the world of high-end watchmaking, Gucci’s fifth annual collection sees its G-Timeless watches become miniature canvases, each dial hand-painted or inlaid with natural gems and Venetian Murano glass. Perhaps most notably, the Gucci 25H Amphitheater, an 8.4 mm skeleton tourbillon with diamond-set dial inspired by the Colosseum, cements the maison’s horological prowess.
But Gucci’s most talked-about moment likely came with Monili, its first high jewelry collaboration with Pomellato. Debuted on the Cruise 2026 runway in Florence, Monili—which includes sculptural bracelets—pairs soft leather with white and rose gold in jewels and accessories that feel both architectural and intimate.
Taken together, these latest haute collections signal a new era of Italian opulence—deeply referential, defiantly modern, and unmistakably Gucci.
