The Archive
This Fall/Winter 1996 Ultra Rare Find Gucci by Tom Ford runway shoulder bag pairs rich brown pony hair with a sculptural gold-tone oval handle. Its oversized, elongated silhouette and broad, curved upper panels create an architectural shape, while the softly reflective pony hair adds depth and a tactile richness to the restrained design.
The oversized oval opening is the defining feature, framed by polished metal that gives the bag a jewelry-like presence. A small rectangular Gucci plaque sits beneath the handle, providing a discreet signature. The combination of dark brown texture and warm gold-tone hardware makes this a distinctive piece with a strong visual identity.

Condition Report
Very good vintage condition 8/10 gentle folds through the body, with variations in sheen and hair direction across the brown surface. Slight unevenness of the hair is visible along portions of the lower edge and corners. The bag retains its elongated outline, with some natural waviness through the lower body.
The gold-tone oval handle and Gucci plaque appear bright in the supplied views; close-up inspection is needed to assess fine scratches or finish wear. These photographs show the front exterior only. The rear panel, base, interior and closure have not been assessed, so an overall condition grade remains pending.
Curators Perspective
What makes this Gucci compelling is the relationship between texture and shape. The brown pony hair has a soft, tactile presence, while the oversized gold-tone oval adds a crisp, sculptural focal point. For a collector drawn to Tom Ford’s Gucci, the Fall/Winter 1996 runway attribution adds a specific place in the house’s design history to an already expressive silhouette.

"Item came in brand new condition. Seller even provided a slip to get the front pocket repaired. Hoping my Louis Vuitton location will honor it so I can get rid of the defect from
the canvas and alcantara lining. Item came with full inclusions. Very happy!"
