Factual error: When Tom Ford reads The New York Times article about his successful show, his copy from Sunday March 13 1995 is a Frankenstein made out of different articles from different parts of the year that don't match the titles (the 'utility employees' article is actually about a single mother in a dire situation, published on December 26, the 'Soviet ship' article is from November 10). Also, there's the small detail that March 13 1995 was a Monday, not a Sunday. (02:16:35)

Continuity mistake: Nemir Kirdar in their first meeting tells Maurizio that family business means family problems. The cigar in his hand is tilted at a different angle in the reverse shot. (01:47:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Paola stands and leaves with vague promises of strudel deliveries, Patrizia's hands are joined. Cuts to her watching Paola leave, and she's smoking, hands apart. (01:43:25)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Pacino introduces the country workers to "My nephew Maurizio" his sunglasses suddenly jump from his head to his hand. Adam Driver in this second shot affectionately touches his wife's back, and the gesture is repeated in the next angle change. (00:44:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Maurizio tells Patrizia to stay away from "Gucci" and that he can handle the company himself, Lady Gaga's hand is higher up on the bedpost, past the ring. It's lower, below the ring, in the reverse shot. (01:38:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Patrizia retorts Maurizio's confrontational attitude with "YOU are an unnecessary detail" she holds the glass with her right hand, which becomes the left in the reverse shot. (01:36:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Maurizio corrects Patrizia saying the restaurant was at the second floor of the Tour Eiffel, Lady Gaga goes from both hands joined to one hand up in the air in the middle of a gesture. An even more blatant instance later when he lambasts her saying they wouldn't tell her if they did mind her gab. (01:36:05)

Sammo ★

Factual error: The judge sentences Aldo to a year and a day of prison, and that's accurate, but he adds "In a state penitentiary." Aldo Gucci served time at the so called "Club Fed", the Federal Prison Camp of Eglin. (01:22:50)

Sammo ★

Character mistake: Paolo whines at the phone about his father going to jail when he's 70 years old. Like Al Pacino who plays him, Aldo Gucci was 80 at the time of the arrest. (01:21:35)

Sammo ★

Factual error: Aldo Gucci's arrest happened in January 1986, but when Paolo reads the news on "La Stampa", the article next to it refers to researcher Thomas Chalmers asking for a smoking ban on US airlines. That's August of the same year. (01:21:10)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: The IRS agent that knocks at the door of Aldo's squash booth sports a badge that is more phony than a football bat; it doesn't have a name, expiration date, or a full sentence on it. (01:21:05)

Sammo ★

Revealing mistake: When Paolo tells Patrizia "I do have something on my father", you can plainly see the separation between the frowned forehead of Jared Leto and his "bald cap" prosthetics. (01:15:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Patrizia is told by Domenico "You have a natural advantage, you are not a Gucci", her hands are down and separated, and then immediately in the next shot up and joined. (01:11:35)

Sammo ★

Factual error: In the audience of the Versace show in 1983, there's a shot in the crowd showing someone portraying Karl Lagerfeld, in company of his iconic cat. Lagerfeld wasn't known for carrying felines around during that part of his career. (01:09:00)

Sammo ★

Factual error: At the Versace fashion show set in 1983, the photographers are using cameras with modern flashes installed, complete with LCD displays. (01:08:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Rodolfo verbally eviscerates Paolo who presented him his sketches. Then he adds "Oh no, forgive me." As he does that, his eyeglasses switch hands. (00:55:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Aldo is having lunch with Maurizio and Patrizia at the country house. He says "I love this place", cigar in hand. Puts the hand down, but the hand is up in the following shot. (00:45:05)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Paolo shrugs at his father sniping at his fashion taste saying "Ehh, it's chic", his arm is lowered in one shot, up in the next. (00:36:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Aldo after the birthday toast tells Patrizia that the Gucci were saddle-makers. His son in the wide angle claps his hands together, nothing in them. Closer angle, and he conjured smokes and a lighter. (00:35:25)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Aldo invites Maurizio to play a heated game of calcio fiorentino at the villa, the people lounging in the background change position between shots. (00:34:20)
