Gucci Celebrates Qixi With 3 Mini Dramas Starring Wen Qi and Song Wei Long
Gucci is bringing cinematic storytelling to its Qixi campaign with For the Love of Drama, a series of three mini dramas that turn love, timing and self expression into distinct fashion narratives. Rather than relying on a single campaign image or traditional romantic storyline, the house uses the language of China’s fast growing short form drama genre to explore different versions of connection.
The campaign includes The Platform Plot, Rainy Day Interlude and Until We Meet Again.

Rain often signals reflection, change or a pause in the rhythm of daily life, and the film uses that atmosphere to create a more intimate kind of romance. With Tian Xi Wei at the centre, the chapter takes on a moodier and more dramatic tone…
