Gucci reigned supreme at the end of 2018 after taking various top spots in the ranking throughout the previous parts of the year.

Its recent run of success has been attributed to creative director Alessandro Michele, who has led the brand since 2015. Michele seems to have a keen awareness of what young people want, including bright, eclectic colors and patterns that are engaging, eye-catching, and look good on Instagram, Business Insider wrote in July after visiting one of its stores.

Between October and December, more than six million shoppers searched for Gucci accessories. These have become some of the most powerful products in fashion, according to Lyst.
