For spring 2021, Emilio Pucci is releasing a capsule collection with Supreme, the American streetwear brand recently acquired by VF Corp. The collection comprises 14 items including a silk jacket, waterproof nylon sweats, shirts and T-shirts, a hoodie and pants, a football jersey and shorts and accessories such as sunglasses, caps, a belt and a Zippo lighter. For inspiration, LVMH’s Italian brand, which is famous for its prints, has reached into its archives to revive itsTulipani and Fantasia motifs from 1965 and 1970. To be the collection’s face, Pucci has selected the American skater, rapper and music producer Sage Elsesser, who has been photographed for a social media campaign by David Sims. The collection goes on sale on June 10 at Supreme’s stores and on the brands’ respective websites: supremenewyork.com and emiliopucci.com. Supreme already engaged in a highly publicized collaboration in 2017 with Louis Vuitton, the biggest brand inside the LVMH group.
