Scrawled across a T-shirt bearing the Gucci stripe and interlocking GG motif is the wistful confession, &ldquo;I want to go back to beliving a story&rdquo;. In the same offbeat lettering, a black tote-backpack asks apprehensively: &ldquo;What are we going to do with all this future?&rdquo;&nbsp;These are just some of the many eclectic pieces from Gucci&rsquo;s new capsule collection with Coco Capit&aacute;n.&nbsp;

If the name rings a bell, that&rsquo;s because this isn&#39;t the first time 24-year-old Capit&aacute;n&nbsp;has collaborated with Gucci;&nbsp;the Spanish artist&rsquo;s handwritten aphorisms&nbsp;first appeared on tank tops at the brand&rsquo;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielsingapore.com/fashion/gucci-fall-winter-2017-2018-ready-to-wear-runway-collection-pictures-milan-fashion-week" target="_blank">Fall/Winter 2017 runway&nbsp;show</a>, as well as&nbsp;on Creative Director Alessandro Michele&#39;s t-shirt&nbsp;as he made his closing bow. Guests of the Gucci show space in Milan were also introduced to one of Capit&aacute;n&rsquo;s text-based artworks displayed on a wall as they entered the show space.

Like the collaborators who&nbsp;preceded&nbsp;her (such as graffiti artist GucciGhost&nbsp;and illustrator Angela Hicks),&nbsp;Capit&aacute;n&rsquo;s work bears all the witticism&nbsp;and quirkiness that caught the attention of the Italian fashion house in the first place. The capsule collection&nbsp;marries&nbsp;her witty and ironic take on the world with&nbsp;Michele&rsquo;s aesthetic of contemporary, eclectic Romanticism &ndash; comprising of&nbsp;casual, unisex pieces such as&nbsp;sweatshirts, t-shirts, hoodies, backpacks, coats,&nbsp;and belt-bags that form the canvas for Capit&aacute;n&rsquo;s na&iuml;ve-looking handwritten messages.

The collection will be released globally in selected Gucci stores and&nbsp;<a href="http://www.gucci.com/int/en/" target="_blank">online</a> later this month. To commemorate the launch, Gucci recently&nbsp;unveiled&nbsp;a new instalment of its on-going Art Wall project. Capit&aacute;n&rsquo;s work adorns&nbsp;a 2,500-square-foot wall on both&nbsp;Lafayette Street in&nbsp;New York, and Milan&rsquo;s Largo la Foppa, bearing the messages&nbsp;&lsquo;What are we going to do with all this future?&rsquo; and&nbsp;&lsquo;Common sense is not that common&rsquo;.&nbsp;
