Fiat 500 by Gucci

The house’s green-red-green web, wrapped around an icon.

The 500 by Gucci brought the house’s signature green-red-green web stripe to Fiat’s icon, wrapping it around the whole car and echoing it across the cabin on seats, belts and mats, finished with Gucci script badging, logo wheel caps, chromed details and green-painted calipers. Styled by Frida Giannini with Fiat’s Centro Stile and launched at Geneva in 2011 in white or black (hatch and cabrio), it was one of the highest-profile fashion-house car tie-ups of its era.
