The collection will be available in September 2020 in all the Emilio Pucci boutiques worldwide, online store and in selected wholesalers, as well as KOCHÉ online store.
The Maison declares: “Pucci’s creative strategy is evolving: the Maison has decided to open its fabulous archives to “creative voices”, entrusting them to deliver innovative interpretations of Pucci’s heritage prints, lifestyle and collections. Pucci’s first collaboration will be with Christelle Kocher, a designer already spotted by LVMH on the occasion of the LVMH prize, and recognized for her unique blend of couture and street. We love her energy and are confident that her take on Pucci will be incredibly interesting and beautiful”.
