Gucci Bamboo Top Handle Bag

The history of the Gucci Bamboo bag started in 1947, soon after the end of the Second World War which is reflected in the style of the bag. All industries experienced crisis then and the fashion industry wasn’t an exception. However, Gucci found a great solution - to manufacture a new bag using imported bamboo and pigskin. The bamboo was suitable for handles as it was easy to heat and then curve into a semi-circle. Pigskin was used for the body of the bag in place of more expensive skins. That is how the innovative Gucci Bamboo bag appeared in the tough post-war years!

In the 1960s -1970s Gucci Bamboo bag was a boom. All celebrities and style icons wanted this bag because of its fascinating look. It had been years since the release of the bag, when in 2010 the creative director of Gucci Frida Giannini decided to redesign the bag.

Today we can find lots of versions of the bag, including exclusive limited editions in crocodile skin and a white or black python as well as the legendary pigskin. For those who love more innovative materials, Gucci made the New Bamboo in a hyper-modern neoprene. Moreover, handles and hardware have been also modified. The bag comes with the bamboo fringe tassels that gives it a sexier look.

This classic luxury bag is available in two sizes.

Gucci Dionysus Shoulder Bag

Gucci Dionysus Bag first appeared in the 2015 Fall/Winter Collection. This iconic purse is already an absolute must-have! In the Fall/Winter collection 2015 the creative director of Gucci wanted to combine ‘old’ Gucci and “new” Gucci, using some vintage flair and modern ideas. One of the results of this mix is the timeless Gucci Dionysus Bag.

The bag takes its name after the Greek God Dionysus. In the Greek mythology, the God Dionysus was the god of agriculture, wine and pleasure. That is why the bag features an antiqued tiger-head spur which makes reference to the transformation of Dionysus into an animal to carry a nymph across the Tigris River. 

Today the purse exists in a variety of colors and materials so that every woman will find a design to her taste! Even for monogram print addicts Gucci released the Dionysus bag in the iconic Gucci Monogram canvas.

What Is the Difference Between These Gucci Bags?

At first sight all 3 iconic Gucci bags seem to be quite similar.

1) They are small and compact, Gucci doesn’t release them in large sizes so that they preserve their charm and elegance.

2) They all have a rounded rectangle shape that gives them a more sophisticated look.

3) They will perfectly complete any outfit - either a romantic dress for the date or a chic office look.

Are there any differences between these Gucci bags? Of course! Let’s discuss them!

The differences lie in little details like the lock, the chain and the interior.

• Lock

A GG buckle is one of the most recognizable symbols of the brand. It first appeared in the 1960s and since then this legendary lock has been featured on a lot of Gucci bags. The lock of a Gucci Bamboo bag is represented by a short and straight bamboo stick. For a Dionysus bag Gucci used a semi-circle buckle with a head of a tiger which tells us the legend of the God Dionysus.

• Chain

The Gucci chain is manufactured from carefully selected materials and can have a gold or antique silver tone. Some new modifications of the classic chain that are seen in the Bamboo bad make the bag look more innovative.

• Interior

Different bags have different interiors. First of all, the number of pockets and their location are different. In some they are positioned on the back side of the bag like on Gucci GG Marmont bag, some feature a zipped central pocket, look at the Gucci Dionysus bag, in some Gucci bags the pockets are on both sides like on Gucci Bamboo bag. You may also find these handbags in the Gucci outlet locations in the US.
