With a deep connection to the luxury sector (the company's founder, Patricia Gucci, is the grand-daughter of Guccio Gucci, who launched his namesake brand in 1921,) the Aviteur Carry-On represents a new paradigm in the world of luggage, combining superlative craftsmanship with innovative materials and design.

"Nowadays we're constantly on the move and carry-ons have become part of everyday life, much like a handbag or a briefcase and yet, walking through airports, all I saw were generic products without any real personality, says Ms. Gucci. "I wanted something that stood out from the crowd, that was cutting edge but also evoked an era when travel had a certain style."
