Mark Ronson

GQ magazine has just revealed their top ten picks for “The Most Stylish Men in America” which is to be featured in their upcoming March 2009 issue.





Frida Giannini is a smart woman, the Gucci Creative Director knows how to reach the pop culture and the trendsetters. She found in Mark Ronson the right teammate, the NY-based English DJ & producer is a very stylish man. Mark and Frida teamed-up to create a collection of limited edition sneakers. The three styles the brand is previewing include a chukka, a deck shoe, and a more traditional sneaker, which, with their bright colorways and preppy styling, call to mind the footwear of another of Ronson’s favorite lines, Band of Outsiders. Each sneaker will incorporates Gucci’s logo and come with a 12-inch vinyl record with exclusive tracks from Mark Ronson.

I don’t think Mark Ronson could have refused Gucci’s collaboration, he explained: “I spent many many years as an avid sneaker collector, so I wanted to make sure these Gucci shoes were truly special, both from an aesthetic point of view and a collectable one.” Avid kick collectors will no doubt want them all.

Gucci x Ronson’s upcoming sneakers will be available only at the pop-up shops specially designed for this collection. The Gucci flash store opens in New York this October before traveling to Miami, London, Berlin, Paris, Hong-Kong and Tokyo.
