An absolutely gorgeous and instantly recognizable Gucci by Tom Ford red velvet pantsuit dating back to his 1996 fall/winter runway collection. This epic set was runway look 39 modeled by the stunning Trish Goff. He revisited the design throughout every stage of the rest of his career but this is the original. Tom Ford resurrected the Italian house a year prior with immediate recognition but became even more popular when Gwyneth Paltrow wore this velvet suit to the MTV Video Music Awards. Vogue described the collection as the “fashion equivalent of a one-night stand at Studio 54.” The ruby-red fully lined velvet is unbelievably sumptuous, trimmed with satin and matching covered buttons. The set is cut to accentuate the figure without restricting or being overly revealing; hinting at what’s underneath without spoiling the surprise. Whether you’re attending a red carpet, wedding, or a fabulous night out, this iconic suit is a surefire smash hit.
