For Gucci's holiday campaign 'Gucci hacker,' creative director, Alessandro Michele, teams up with Christopher Simmonds and Harley Weir to blend or rather hack the codes of Gucci and Balenciaga. The brand is also launching a series of Gucci pop-ups with a Gucci Gift selection that debuts in multiple New York locations, Beverly Hills, Chicago, Miami Design District and Costa Mesa.
The holiday hack collection features pieces that shook the internet when the shocking 'Gucci hack' premiered on the runway earlier this year.
