Gabicci Vintage Clothing Hot this season!

Gabicci launches Vintage collection

Gabicci, first launched in 1973, fast became an underground style leader and embodied a look
adopted first by the ‘Northern Soul’ music scene, later to appear in the early ‘terrace looks’ mostly
by northern football fanatics. Teamed with the Farah hopsack and trainers, the discrete metal gold
coloured G symbol quickly became the brand mark of the day.

Gabicci was soon ‘Del Boy’s favourite attire with many of the key styles of the day worn by David Jason
on the programme ‘Only Fools and Horses’.

The retro revivals during the 90s meant that Gabicci styles were again being worn on the club scene,
but in ever decreasing numbers as the original 70s garments became increasingly rare, with good
examples changing hands on ebay at up to £150 a time.

Through this association with the young music scene, from it’s ‘Northern Soul’ roots right through to
today’s ‘Indie’ bands, Gabicci has been received by youth culture as an iconic brand. Lately, several
key music style leaders including Pete Doherty, have been spotted wearing vintage pieces.

Now re-launched for Autumn 2007 as Gabicci Vintage, the available designs encompass key original
knitted styles, complete with mock suede trims, together with jersey tops and polos inspired by archive
photographs and original samples. Set for today’s market, the look is ‘slim’ with quality yarns and
fabrics used throughout the collection in rich and contemporary colours.

Availability is limited to around 16 styles with low production runs and is only offered through
‘switched on’ clothing stores, ensuring that the Gabicci Vintage range will retain it’s exclusive tag and
underground status.
