When did the adidas x gucci collection come out?

Gucci unveiled the Adidas x Gucci collection, its fall 2022 ready-to-wear collection, during its “Exclusive Gucci” runway show in February. The fashion show featured a star-studded front row with Rihanna, A$AP Rocky, Jared Leto, Serena Williams, Daisy Edgar-Jones and many others.

What does the Adidas x Gucci collection look like?

The Adidas x Gucci collection offers women’s and men’s pieces, including apparel, footwear, accessories, jewelry and lifestyle pieces. The collection fuses the design ethos of both brands, mixing the Gucci and Adidas logos and incorporating many of the sports brand’s signature elements, such as its three stripes and famous tracksuit. Gucci also incorporated its own famous red and green designs.

The collection oozes 70s style, with retro pieces such as flared pants, bowling shirts, knitted vests and other pieces designed with geometric prints. The shoes include the Adidas Gazelle sneaker in suede and leather, and new versions of Gucci’s Horsebite loafers.

For handbags, the collection offers the Gucci Horacebit 1955 cross-body bag and duffel bag in varying sizes.

Creative director Alessandro Michele took a ’70s-inspired approach for the campaign, which was photographed by Carlijn Jacobs.

“Alessandro Michele envisions a campaign that draws inspiration directly from the 1979 Adidas catalog,” the collection’s press release said. “To animate the concept, a gridded template displays a variety of moving imagery captured by Carlijn Jacobs. Against a brightly colored background, models stretch, run or dance, as if ‘when your thoughts become reality, then you understand what magic is.'”

When will the collection be available?

The Adidas x Gucci collection is available starting June 7.

How Can I Buy Pieces From the Adidas x Gucci Collection?

The collaboration is available for purchase at Gucci stores, on its website, and on the adidas Confirmed app.

More pop-up stores would later open on Fifth Avenue, Wooster Street and East Hampton in New York; on Michigan Avenue in Chicago; at Houston’s Galleria; at Lenox Mall in Atlanta; at Miami’s Aventura Mall; and at the Holt Renfrew Yorkdale store in Toronto.
