Getting Ready With
Burgers, Bicep Curls & Blush: Sierra Rena’s GucciCore Photo Diary
She hit the Gucci show, the Gucci Gym, and the Gucci Mansion.
If you live in the city of Manhattan, you know Gucci was unavoidable this weekend. The brand’s awe-inspiring takeover of Times Square was a fashion lover’s wet dream, a scathing critique of the shopping-obsessed American mind, and a great place to run into Lindsay Lohan. For Sierra Rena, it was a night of firsts: her first Gucci show, her first time meeting NYLON’s editor-in-chief, and (probably) her first time wearing a shearling coat in 70-degree weather. Rena was a natural choice to join the show’s other New York-based attendees and models that make up the modern fabric of the creative forces working hard (and partying hard) in the city.
Rena is a true multi-hyphenate, working as a creative consultant, stylist, model, and designer of her own handbag line, SIV (which she naturally paired with a Gucci purse for the show). Her first time at a Gucci show was all about the blown-out hair, heavy-beat makeup (her blush worked overtime), and the lingerie under her shearling coat from the Generation Gucci collection. But the show was really the first stop of the night: Gucci’s epic Gucci Mansion saw all manner of A-listers shuffling in and out of the gym, billiards room, lounge, library, and basement all decked out in double-G product. For an inside peek at Rena’s day from glam to the runway and beyond, keep scrolling.
