Gucci launches eco-friendly shoe collection Sustainable Soles
Gucci has announced the launch of Sustainable Soles, a special edition of eco-friendly women’s and men’s shoes, designed by Creative Director Frida Giannini and part of the Pre-fall 2012 Collection. The Sustainable Soles include the Marola Green ballerinas for her and the California Green sneakers for him, both made in bio-plastic - a biodegradable material in compost used as an alternative to petrochemical plastic. This eco-aware material follows a shorter degradation process compared to traditional industrial plastic, without leaving waste or environmental impact. The Marola Green flat ballerina features cut out details, the GG logo motif and is available in the blush, taupe, black and black with an interlocking G in white. The men’s California Green sneakers, in a low or high top version, combine the bio-rubber soles with the upper part in vegetable tanned black calfskin, biologically certified strings and rhodium-plated metal details. Additionally, the green Gucci logo has been designed on a recycled polyester label. The Sustainable Soles will be available at selected Gucci stores worldwide and online from the end of June.

DONATELLA VERSACE IS GUEST SPEAKER AT THE OXFORD UNION
DONATELLA VERSACE IS GUEST SPEAKER AT THE OXFORD UNION
Yesterday 30th May at the Oxford Union, renowned fashion designer and Creative Director of Versace and Versus, Donatella Versace, gave a talk to over 300 Oxford University students. Held as an ‘in conversation with’ Style.com’s fashion writer Tim Blanks, Ms. Versace spoke about the great fashion house of Versace, referencing style, family, past and future, Versace icons and touching on topics of history, technology, economy, globalism and feminism.
Accompanied by long-term friend Rupert Everett, and collaborator on her Versus line Christopher Kane, Donatella Versace arrived to rapturous applause from students, fans and paparazzi.
"I am really honoured and excited about speaking at the Oxford Union. I went to university in Florence - another ancient university city – but the university there is neither as old nor as famous as that in Oxford, nor does it have this amazing tradition of public speaking and debate. My classmates from back then would be very amused to see me at Oxford today. And I’m sure there will be others who will be astonished to find me addressing the Union. But maybe I can surprise a few people?”
Donatella Versace
“It is a privilege to have welcomed Donatella Versace to the Oxford Union today. I am delighted that somebody so notable and distinguished has taken the time out of her schedule to share her wisdom and experiences with our members - a large number of whom are interested in fashion, as seen by the success of previous visitors such as Anna Wintour. Moreover I’m sure that even those who are not interested in fashion will take inspiration from Donatella’s visit. We are honoured to be able to add Ms. Versace to our list of distinguished guest speakers.”
Dean Palmer, Oxford Union President
Previous speakers from the worlds of Art, Music, Fashion, Politics and Science at the Oxford Union include Michael Jackson, The Dalai Lama, Professor Stephen Hawking, Johnny Depp, Lawrence Dellalio and Dame Judi Dench, to name but a few.
