[Text-To-Speech] Act of a fairy tale.

Gucci: Epilogue, the third part of the fairy tale

questioning the rules and traditions of fashion.

This collectsion is the closing act to a trilogy that began

with the celebration of the fashion show as magical ritual,

continued with a campaign created by the models themselves,

and now concludes with clothes being worn

by those who designed them.

As the creators now become the performers,

Epilogue is an end, but also a beginning,

as it attempts to imagine new ways of expression.

The Forum Boarium was the original docks of Rome,

and home to the city's biggest food market.

It was also a religious center with two major temples,

the Temple of Hercules Victor, and the Temple of Portunus.

Palazzo Sachetti is one of the most

beautiful buildings in Rome.

Constructed in 1542, the Renaissance architect

Antonio da Sangallo the Younger designed it for himself

and dedicated the final years of his life

to what he called the perfect building.

[Text-To-Speech] Collectively known as

the D'Innocenzo brothers, Damiano and Fabio are directors

and screenwriters from Rome with a passion

for art, photography, and poetry.

Their films are rich in cinematic and literary references

with a uniquely personal vision.

Known as a photographer of loners and dreamers,

Minneapolis-based Alex Soth is celebrated for his poetic

and sensitive portrayals of American lives and mythology.

He has published over 25 critically-acclaimed books

with over 50 solo exhibitions.

[Alex] One of the great pleasures of being a photographer

is having an excuse to stare at people.

But when I made a career out of this activity,

I learned that it also meant that people get to stare at me.

Photographers often ask if they can take my portrait.

And now I, you know, I feel like it's bad karma

if I turn them down, so I agree,

but I can't say it's always a comfortable experience.

So I'm not just a photographer of loners and dreamers,

I am a loner and a dreamer.

And I really became attracted to photography

because I liked working alone.

I kind of assumed I would be photographing in like,

deserted landscapes or something,

but I found over time that I needed people in the pictures

to energize the photographs.

And then as more time passed along,

I've I found I needed people alongside of me

to energize the work.

There's this kind of contradiction that I...

I am a loner, but I need other people to make my work.

And and this energy of contradiction, I feel like is what,

what Alessandro and what Gucci understands

better than anyone putting, contradictory elements together

to bring new life to something.
