I love Tom Ford when he was Creative Director of Gucci, but Giannini has proven that she took over the role with aplomb thus making Gucci still the desirable labels of all time by celebrities, movie stars and loyalties.
Frida Giannini’s unique talent and modern vision have fueled her rise as the leading creative force behind one of the world’s most celebrated fashion houses.

Paragon Singapore, Orchard Road.
Giannini will be coming to Singapore in April.
To celebrate her trip here,
the Singapore Tourism Board & the Singapore Botanical Garden,
has honour and created a namesake orchid,
Paravanda Frida.
Which is amazing to have an orchid name after you.
