The Vatican, a site in quite a close proximity to the Gucci fashion show, is also known for carrying a strong Anti-abortion sentiment. While addressing the attendees of an anti-abortion conference in Rome on Saturday, Pope Francis suggested a similarity between abortion and hiring “hitman to solve a problem” also maintaining that the procedure could never be accepted.

The new collection of the 2020 fashion show featured on Tuesday was in the inclusion of a gown with an embroidered uterus while also showcasing a jacket with the feminist slogan “My body, my choice,”. Moreover, the audience also got to witness a shirt which featured the date, 1978 when Italy legalized abortion.

After the show, Alessandro Michele, Gucci’s creative director, spoke his mind through a press conference. During which he maintained that women “should be free to choose what they want and terminate a pregnancy,” also named it “the most difficult choice for a woman to make,”

Michele also talked about the fact that the collection is inspired by the social movements of the 1970s. 

Michele told Women’s Wear Daily,

“It was a historical moment when women — finally — rejected all the constraints that were imposed in the previous centuries and they became free,” 

Gucci’s creative director maintained,

“That’s why I am paying homage to the Italian law regarding abortion, law number 194. It’s unbelievable that around the world there are still people who believe that they can control a woman’s body, a woman’s choice. I will always stand behind the freedom of being, always.”

The creative protesting style of Gucci is sure garnering much-needed attention towards the issue of abortion rights.
