Gucci Fashion Show Includes Denim Ode to Dolly Parton

by Jim Casey | @TheJimCasey | September 26, 2018

During Gucci’s Spring 2019 runway show on Sept. 24 in Paris, two images of Dolly Parton strolled down the runway.

Dolly’s likeness was featured on two pieces of clothing by Italian designer Alessandro Michele:

a sleeveless denim jacket with an airbrushed closeup of Parton and the word “Dolly”
a pink sweater with a pop-art portrait of Dolly

Gucci posted a photo of the denim jacket on Twitter with the caption: “In a tribute to the most honored female country performer Dolly Parton, a sleeveless denim jacket with her image on the back, a two tone shirt and leggings, from the #GucciSS19 fashion show in Paris by #AlessandoMichele. #pfw #mfw.”
