It’s not very often that you see a science nerd talking about a luxury fashion brand. But on rare occasions, it’s possible, especially when the brand in question is Gucci. But what in fashion can be so compelling that would motivate a nerd to turn to fashion? Any guess folks? Well, it’s Star Trek!

Italian fashion and luxury brand Gucci has released its Fall/Winter 2017 collection and it’s a science-fiction lover’s paradise (quite literally!). The collection is inspired by the popular science-fiction movie Star Trek and it’s full of green monsters, retro footwear, dazzling eyeglasses and shimmery suits.

Gucci’s Fall/Winter 2017 collection has been designed by Alessandro Michele and it includes elements from 50’s and 60’s sci-fi movie like ‘Lost in Space’ and ‘The Valley of Gwangi’. Filmmaker and photographer Glen Luchford captured the Gucci’s Fall 2017 collection in all it’s glory and compiled a mini-movie out of it that is painted in sepia and has a ‘vintage’ appeal. Interestingly, the movie has UFOs, vast grassland with 50’s kids, cows and even a dinosaur.

Gucci’s Fall/Winter collection is full of red sequin, mahogany green, peach and royal blue floral patterns coupled with bold and bedazzling gems and stone work. Here’s a quick glimpse of the collection:
