Gucci x Tom Ford Fall 1999 Trousers

These psychedelic velvet flared trousers from Gucci’s Fall 1999 collection are among the most memorable and sought-after pieces from Tom Ford’s transformative era at the house. Crafted from sumptuous velvet patterned with hypnotic, swirling motifs - the Gucci signature subtly woven into the print - they embody the seductive, high-gloss glamour that defined Ford’s late-1990s aesthetic. The psychedelic velvet was a key theme of the collection, appearing not only in ready-to-wear but also on two handbag styles. Famously worn by Gisele on the September 1999 cover of Vogue and by Carmen Kass for an editorial in the October 1999 edition of French Vogue, these trousers capture the spirit of the moment when Ford redefined modern luxury. Gucci became synonymous with sex appeal, confidence, and cultural impact at the dawn of the new millennium.

Tailored from the softest, most fluid silk-mix velvet, they are slim cut throughout the thigh - the classic Tom Ford-era silhouette - giving way to a soft, floppy flare from the knee down. They have a high-waist cut and fasten at the left hip with a tonal dark green zip with logo-engraved pull. They are lined throughout with stone-coloured satin.
