Gucci is a brand recognized and admired around the world. It was created by Guccio Gucci who opened their first luxury leather goods store in Florence exactly a century ago.
At the end of the 1970s, the Italian fashion empire was at a critical juncture in its history. If the company is now shining internationally, it is handicapped by rumors of financial embezzlement, at half-mast innovation and a downgrading of the brand. The group is led by the two sons of the founder - Aldo, a cunning and colorful character, and his brother Rodolfo, much colder and more traditional.
Pugnacious, Aldo has no intention of ceding control of the empire to anyone - and certainly not to his son Paolo, a fanciful boy who aspires to be a stylist. As for Maurizio, Rodolfo’s shy and overprotected son, he is more interested in studying law than leading a global luxury group.
That's when Maurizio falls in love with the lovely and manipulative Patrizia Reggiani and, against his father's advice, decides to marry her. When Aldo discovers an affinity with Patrizia, he succeeds, with the help of the young woman, in convincing his nephew to give up his legal ambitions to join the company of which he becomes, de facto, the probable heir. This does not fail to feed the resentment of Paolo, whose talent does not live up to his artistic dreams ...
