adventuring_librarian's review against another edition
Full of all the details, and I think it’s be interesting, but not in the mood for something so detail heavy right now.

A fantastic biography of the luxury fashion brand Gucci from the time of inception to its many public battles, it’s creative processes, and ofcourse the brutal murder of Maurizio Gucci by his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani.
A word of caution to potential readers - the back cover makes it sound like the entire book is about the murder but it is NOT. It’s primarily a book on Gucci the brand and the politics of the fashion industry and maybe 20% of the book (if that) is about the murder. If you like books on fashion, business and strategy this makes for a gripping read. Loved it.
