One of the looks of the Gucci HA HA HA collection, characterized by whimsical prints and bright colors
The collection Gucci HA HA HA
What lies behind the name of the collaborative capsule? The meaning is twofold. ‘HA HA HA’ is in fact the serial crasis of the initials of Harry and Alessandro, but it is also the onomatopoeic sound of laugh, with whom the messages that Styles and Michele have been exchanging for years have closed. The title given to the collection, which immediately reveals its playful and ironic soul, is found embroidered on the sleeves of the jackets or on the label inside the clothes.
The clothes and accessories that make up the capsule revisit some aspects of the English tailoring, to which romantic accents and historically considered feminine details have been added. Styles and Michele have been thinking about one for some time new idea of masculinitydisconnected from gender stereotypes and age-old rules.

The friendship between Harry Styles and Alessandro Michele
The English singer and actor and the Italian designer met at a salient moment in their respective careers: Michele had just made his debut as creative director of Gucci, Styles had just released his first solo album. The meeting between the two quickly turned into a creative and aesthetic partnershipirreverent and original.
“Harry has a tremendous sense of fashion. […] The idea of working together came to me one day while we were talking on the phone: I suggested that we build a “wardrobe of dreams”Starting from those little oddities that know how to put together almost childish visions. We got a mix of 70’s pop aesthetic, bohemian spirit, of revision of the gentleman’s imagination in an overturned memory of male tailoring ». Alessandro Michele describes the concept behind Gucci HA HA HA, the latest chapter in an artistic saga that has revolutionized the panorama of men’s fashion, to the sound of transparent shirts with ruffles, on the red carpet of the Met Gala, and women’s dresses on the covers of the most important fashion magazines.
The knitted vest, one of Styles’ most loved and worn garments, is once again the protagonist in the collection signed with Gucci
A dialogue, a game, the complicit expression of a friendship that collects encounters, stories, commonalities and differences to produce liberating codes. All this is Gucci HA HA HA.
