Following 2019’s capsule collection of hearts and stars comes 2020’s kawaii-cute GG Apple print released specially for Chinese Valentine’s Day, with the brand new collection launched exclusively at Gucci ION Orchard now, a week ahead of the other boutiques at Marina Bay Sands and Paragon Shopping Centre. The entire line-up is all about the red apple and interlocking GG logo, coming together to form a playful monogram sitting atop the beige/ebony GG Supreme canvas and white GG Marmont leather for bags and SLGs.

Chinese Valentine’s Day collections are typically targeted towards ladies (or rather as gifts that men buy for them), which is why the line-up comprises mini backpacks and shoulder bags, as well as SLGs and shoes, splashed liberally with the bright and chirpy print. And with prices starting from SGD340 for the Cardholder, there’s bound to be something for everyone, depending on the budget you have in mind. Looking for the Card Case Wallet in GG Marmont leather? That’s SGD670. Or how about bags like the Small Shoulder Bag (SGD1530) and Padlock Small (SGD2630), both represented in Gucci’s signature GG Supreme Canvas?

For something great for casual weekends out, you can opt for the Belt Bag (SGD1360) and Round Shoulder Bag (SGD1680), pairing them with the GG Apple screen-printed onto the Ace Sneaker and Gucci 1977 Tennis Shoe for that complete ensemble look, even though it isn’t really recommended. But you can always count on Gucci for a fun and exciting capsule now and then, and this is just one (of many) which you can get your hands on right now. No lover to send a gift to you this Chinese Valentine’s Day? Well, buy it yourself then because a little #selflove doesn’t hurt either.
