Lil Nas X has released his campaign with Coach, having curated an assortment of colorful pieces for the fashion brand’s winter collection.
Lil Nas X is debuting in a new fashion campaign just in time for the holidays. The “Old Town Road” artist is starring in Coach’s Winter Collection.
The Grammy winner’s featured shoot was revealed by the American fashion brand on Dec. 19, also curating pieces to be part of the limited edition collection. According to WWD, Lil Nas X collaborated with Coach’s creative director, Stuart Vevers, to develop the colorful assortment with elements from his own life.
“Our winter collection is inspired by my belief that fashion is about exploring and celebrating all of who you are,” Vevers said. “To create the collection, we twisted the Coach archives and were also inspired by Lil Nas X’s connection to music and nightlife. We evolved heritage styles introduced on the runway last season by amplifying color, texture and graphics to create pieces that celebrate our love for individuality and authentic self-expression that we share.”
Deemed “Y2K inspired,” some of the pieces of the “Lil Nas X Drop” include vibrant shearling coats, graphic tees, and a varsity jacket complete with patches such as the artist’s cat and his zodiac sign. Additional accessories are a furry tabby bag worn by the rapper in the shoot in an electric blue color.
As for Lil Nas X’s newest, and less controversial, dip into fashion, its anticipated release date is set for Dec. 26. For fans wanting to emulate the eccentric artist for the New Year celebration, the collection will be available at select storefronts and online at Coach.com.
