Alessandro Michele, the new creative director of luxury fashion label Gucci, has unveiled his newest online exclusive collection called 'Lovelight.' The expansive new capsule explores the “joyful expression of heritage," offering shoppers a range of whimsical men's and women's pieces.
The collection “[expands] on the exploration of geometric codes from past collections — diamond-shaped patches of leather are stitched together to create a colorful design recalling one of the house’s emblematic symbols," explained the brand in a recent statement.
Notable pieces offered in the collection include a hooded nylon jacket in a gray and yellow comet pattern, an oversized linen shirt, chambray denim shorts, and a quilted Bamboo 1947 top handle bag. In addition, the collection delivers an all-new pair of 'Screener' sneakers

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Online-only Luxury Fashion

- Designers can capitalize on the trend of colorful, geometric patches and shapes to create unique pieces that consumers are drawn to.
- Versatile and Casual Capsule Collections

Sectors Adopting This

- Fashion and Design
- Fashion and design are intrinsically linked, allowing designers to experiment in creating new and unusual garments with colorful patches and shapes.
