Friendship often knows no bounds, and there are few of pairings can achieve great things. Many years ago, the duo have been collaborators for a while—the singer was the face of a Gucci campaign and Michele even designed Style’s Met Gala look. However, long-time friends Alessandro Michele and pop god Harry Styles have collaborated on a Gucci collection- a collection born from a creative fusion that self-generates from recreation and ends with the tangibility of a product”.
Michele believe Harry has a fantastic sense of fashion, and the idea of the collaboration come to his mind while they were talking over phone and Michele proposed creating a ‘dream wardrobe’ with Harry, and they end up this creation a fusion of aesthetics pop and bohemia of 1970’ to the revision of the image of the gentleman in an overturned memory of men’s tailoring. Which results “the creative paths and peculiarities of the two artists”
Traditional English tailoring to classy new heights with the eccentricity, use of Prince of Wales check on double-breasted coats and mother-of-pearl button accents on shirts. Velvet suits in vibrant shades matches with printed pajamas, bowling shirts and pleated kilts. Another collection striped tank tops to the flares to the heart motif on a pair of white boots, the collection named unmistakably Gucci HA HA HA as well as unmistakably Harry.
Though the name of the collection nods to Harry and Alessandro’s first initials, it has essence of an emoji, since they signed off their messages to one another over the years the ‘laughing face. However, The Gucci HA HA HA Collection serves as a shared expression of beauty, one that liberates confining codes to create a wardrobe full of ease and free of traditional boundaries.
