EYEWEAR COLLECTION</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Amsterdam, The Netherlands, October 13, 2003 &#151; Gucci Group N.V. (NYSE:
GUC; Euronext Amsterdam: GCCI.AS) and Safilo S.p.A. announce today the launch
of a new line of Boucheron branded eyewear.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Boucheron sunglasses collection will consist of 4 luxurious and
exclusive models designed by Creative Director Solange Azagury-Partridge and
will be presented to the trade this month at Silmo, the International Optics
and Eyewear exhibition in Paris (October 17<sup>th</sup>-20<sup>th</sup>,
2003).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The main feature of the collection will be the temples of the glasses,
made precious by an intricate, laser-engraved snake design and small Swarovski
crystals running along the temple or stained arabesques inspired by the Orient.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The Boucheron line will be available in selected and prestigious
eyewear stores around the world as well as in all Boucheron stores from Spring
2004.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Commenting on the launch, Domenico De Sole, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Gucci Group N.V., said: &#147;<i><font style="font-style:italic;">Solange
has developed a beautiful collection that is fully coherent with the Boucheron
brand image and product portfolio. Jewelry eyewear is a relatively small but
highly profitable market, in which Boucheron, the first jeweller of Place
Vend&#244;me, has a legitimate role to play. I am confident that working with
Safilo, our long-standing partner for eyewear (Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent,
Bottega Veneta and Stella McCartney) we will successfully cover this niche.&#148;</font></i></font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;text-autospace:none;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Vittorio Tabacchi<i><font style="font-style:italic;">, </font></i>Chairman
of the Safilo Group<i><font style="font-style:italic;">, </font></i>said: &#147;<i><font style="font-style:italic;">We are pleased about this development in our
partnership with Gucci Group and the opportunity to work with such a
prestigious brand. The new collection - which consists of a few precious and
exclusive models - is positioned at the high end of the luxury eyewear market.
The Boucheron sunglasses line will be presented in a few days while a line of
optical frames will be launched in 2004. The distribution of the jewelry
eyewear line will be selective and exclusive as appropriate for the Boucheron
brand&#148;.</font></i></font></p>
