Emilio Pucci is to unveil the first designs by its new artistic director Camille Miceli on April 29 in Capri. In a brief statement, the Florentine house said it would reveal a “capsule collection,” and that Miceli’s arrival at the house last September marked “a new chapter in the history of the maison.”
The format for the event and other details are under wraps, but the development suggests destination shows are returning to the fashion calendar. Gucci has earmarked May 16 for a coed show to be held somewhere in Europe.
The Italian island of Capri has long been considered the jet-set destination par excellence, and it’s where founder Emilio Pucci opened his first store in 1951.
Most recently, accessories creative director at Louis Vuitton, Miceli is a seasoned creative who started her career in public relations, going on to work in the studio with some of the most acclaimed fashion designers in the world, including Karl Lagerfeld, Azzedine Alaïa, Marc Jacobs and Nicolas Ghesquière.
