Selena Gomez Reveals Her First Ready-to-Wear Line With Coach

If in Fall 2017 Selena introduced the Selena Grace bag and a slew of accessories in collaboration with Coach, this season the 26-year-old singer, actress and producer is coming up with her first Ready-to-Wear line as part of her second partnership with the brand.

Working closely with Coach Creative Director Stuart Vevers, the collection includes bags, small leather goods and accessories which is imbued with Selena’s powerfully feminine spirit. Pieces styled by Selena feature her unique touches, including an empowering personal motto written in her handwriting—“Not perfect, Always me”—and a bunny motif that speaks to her imagination. The collection is designed to perfectly reflect Selena’s playful sense of style, which contrasts pretty with sporty and elegance with cool.

Crafted in smooth leather and finished with antique-inspired crystals and bows, the bags bring a fresh lens to Coach’s legacy of leathercraft.

“I love working with Selena because she brings her strong point-of-view to the design process,” said Vevers. “I wanted all of the pieces to reflect her style and her charm—and to feel effortless.”

“I’m so proud of the collection,” said Gomez. “What I love most about working with the Coach team is that they just know how I dress. Everything felt authentic from the beginning.”

The Coach x Selena Gomez collection will be available in stores September 2018.
