NEW YORK, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Coach today
announced the reveal of Coach x Selena
Gomez, the second creative collaboration with the
actress, singer and face of Coach. Following Selena's first
collaboration, which introduced the Selena Grace bag and
accessories in Fall 2017, the new collection includes her first
ready-to-wear pieces and is designed by the star in collaboration
with Coach Creative Director Stuart
Vevers.
Featuring ready-to-wear, bags, small leather goods and
accessories, the collection is imbued with Selena's powerfully
feminine spirit. Pieces styled by Selena feature her unique
touches, including an empowering personal motto written in her
handwriting—"Not perfect, Always me"—and a bunny motif that speaks
to her imagination. The collection is designed to perfectly reflect
Selena's playful sense of style, which contrasts pretty with sporty
and elegance with cool.
In addition to ready-to-wear, which includes pretty silk slips
finished with lace and ultra-soft sweaters and hoodies in
retro-inspired pastels, the collection also introduces two new bag
silhouettes—the Bond and the Trail Bag—which Selena designed in
close collaboration with Vevers. Crafted in smooth leather and
finished with antique-inspired crystals and bows, the bags bring a
fresh lens to Coach's legacy of leathercraft.
"I love working with Selena because she brings her strong
point-of-view to the design process," said Vevers. "I wanted all of
the pieces to reflect her style and her charm—and to feel
effortless."
"I'm so proud of the collection," said Gomez. "What I love most
about working with the Coach team is that they just know how I
dress. Everything felt authentic from the beginning."
The Coach x Selena Gomez
collection will be available for pre-order online at Coach.com and
in stores beginning on August 14, and
available in Coach stores globally beginning August 31.
Shot against the skyline of New York—the city where Coach was
founded and a continuous source of inspiration for the brand—the
collection's campaign was created with longtime Coach
collaborators, photographer Steven
Meisel, art director Fabien
Baron, makeup artist Pat
McGrath and hair stylist Guido Palau.
