The Story

Alessandro Michele scaled up a 1970s belt buckle and made one of the decade's most-searched bags.

Origin

A belt buckle, supersized

The GG Marmont arrived for Fall/Winter 2016, early in Alessandro Michele's tenure. He pulled the Double G from a 1970s Gucci belt buckle, scaled it up, gave it an antiqued finish and set it front and center.

Design

The chevron quilt

The Marmont is instantly known for its soft matelassé chevron leather. Matelassé is a padded, quilted texture, here stitched into a raised chevron pattern.

What gets said about this one, drawn from published reviews and owner discussion. Tell us where your experience differs.

The case for

The sliding chain earns its keep. Doubled up it is a shoulder or top-handle bag, let all the way out it is a crossbody, and owners say that one switch takes it from errands to dinner.
3 sources · r/handbags: what are your thoughts on the Marmont small?
It holds more than the measurements suggest, because the soft leather gives. A long wallet fits the small if you edit around it, and the medium takes one without a fight.
2 sources · YouTube owner review, MissPaoPal, small after four and a half years
The leather wears better than the discourse suggests. Owners at two and three years report no corner wear and scratches you have to hunt for, on bags they say they never babied.
2 sources · YouTube owner review, Fashion with Fatima Zahra, small after three years
It works as a first serious bag. Owners describe reaching for it over pricier Dior and Chanel pieces, and the black with antique gold goes with most of a wardrobe.

The gripes

One soft flap and almost no internal structure. Owners store it stuffed, and several report the front flattening and the top going pointy after a few years of wear.
3 sources · YouTube owner review, MissPaoPal, small after four and a half years
Creasing is the complaint that lands first. One owner found creases on the flap out of the box and Gucci assessed them as external, not a fault. Others report folds that will not buff out.
2 sources · PurseForum: creases on the Marmont flap, Gucci declined to replace
The antique gold does not stay perfect. Owners report fading on the chain by year three and black speckling on the front GG logo by year four, on the part of the bag everyone looks at.
2 sources · YouTube owner review, MissPaoPal, small after four and a half years
Resale is the soft spot. Owners and reviewers describe it trading like a trend piece, and the pre-loved market is deep enough that buyers walk in expecting a discount.
3 sources · r/handbags: what are your thoughts on the Marmont small?
It is one of the most copied bags on the market. Owners say the fakes read close enough that strangers assume a dupe, which is its own kind of tax on carrying the real one.
