Gucci has recently launched an exciting capsule collection in collaboration with the talented Spanish artist, Coco Capitán. The luxury Italian fashion house officially announced their partnership with Coco Capitán in February 2017, and now her signature handwritten phrases are featured on Gucci’s clothing and accessories, adding a unique touch to the brand’s iconic style.
The unisex capsule collection includes a range of trendy pieces such as t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, knitwear, coats, and fur backpacks. Each item carries Gucci’s recognizable combination of green and red, with the brand’s logo interlaced in gold. Coco Capitán’s handwritten phrases adorn the designs, some of which are prominently displayed in the lining of a beautifully embroidered coat.
To celebrate this exciting collaboration, Gucci has invited Coco Capitán to participate in their renowned “Art Wall” project, which focuses on creating stunning murals. These captivating works of art can now be seen on the streets of both Milan and New York, captivating the attention of both locals and tourists.
Gucci’s decision to partner with Coco Capitán comes after successful collaborations with other talented artists such as Jayde Fish and Angelica Hicks, who have contributed their artistic flair to previous collections. Coco Capitán’s talent and unique style have caught the attention of Alessandro Michele, Gucci’s creative director, who was particularly impressed by her outstanding photography skills showcased in publications like Dust, SSaw, Self Service, The New York Times, and Le Monde. Prior to this collaboration, Coco Capitán has also worked with renowned brands including Paco Rabanne, Maison Margiela, and A.P.C.
Notably, Coco Capitán had the great opportunity to create the lookbook for Gucci’s Spring-Summer 2015 men’s collection, a testament to the trust and appreciation Alessandro Michele has for her exceptional work.
