The Story

Built around the bridle hardware Gucci borrowed from the stable in the 1950s.

Origin

Named for a year in the saddle

The Horsebit 1955 takes its name from the mid-1950s, when Gucci first used the horsebit on its bags. Alessandro Michele brought the motif back as the Horsebit 1955 line in 2020.

Design

A bit from a bridle

The signature clasp is the horsebit itself: a double ring joined by a bar, lifted straight from horse bridles. It nods to Gucci's equestrian roots and its early days outfitting riders.
