How To Care For Your Gucci Clutch
Gucci advises protecting your bags from direct sunlight, heat, and rain. If your Gucci bag gets wet, it should be dried immediately or as soon as possible with a soft dry cloth. The clutch bags should not be overfilled with heavy products.
Always store your Gucci clutch bag in the dust bag it comes in. You can also fill the bag with tissue paper to help maintain its shape and absorb any humidity.

- How do you know if a Gucci bag is real?
