This brand has a storied history, beginning back in 1906 when a leather craftsman named Guccio Gucci started a saddle shop called the House of Gucci in Florence, Italy. After his saddles were a hit, Gucci opened a luggage store in Rome in 1938, where he began creating handbags. One of the brand's most famous designs is the Jackie hobo, which is named after the iconic Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, or "Jackie O." You can spot it by its signature monogram logo print and shiny hardware buckle.
