Gucci's newest campaign, "Gucci Summer Stories 2023," asks us to go out on a voyage of unfettered pleasure and summery indulgence. Using a tactile language inspired by the spirit of summer, this vivid and vivacious campaign reimagines iconic Gucci items and design themes. It was expertly directed by Kevin Tekinel and Charles Levai, and it was expertly photographed by Harley Weir.

The Summer Stories capsule collection incorporates the textural characteristics of summer leisure while giving Gucci's classic items fresh vitality. The collection captures the festive mood of the season by using methods like braided raffia, brilliant colours, and geometric patterns. 

These design decisions offer a particular summery appeal to the clothing and accessories, as well as a feeling of fun and carefree elegance.

A diverse ensemble of characters is expertly captured by Harley Weir's photographs as they enjoy in moments of sumptuous leisure and spirited delight. The advertising campaign shows a varied variety of people delighting in the joyous atmosphere of summer, whether they are relaxing poolside or exploring the beach. 

The campaign's design cleverly blends vivid portraiture with close-ups of the accessories, perfectly spotlighting both the collection's design elements and the casual mood it seeks to inspire.

The heart of the "Gucci Summer Stories 2023" campaign lies in its accompanying short film, also directed by Harley Weir. The film enriches the sunny serenity of the campaign, immersing viewers in lush visual details that embody the essence of summer. 

Weir pays delicate attention to capturing the glint of sunlight off the rippling water, the gentle movement of fabric in the breeze, and the mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow. 

Accompanied by a captivating soundtrack that blends ambient sounds of water and birds with The Strokes' evocative track "I'll Try Anything Once," the film encapsulates a gentle and joyful mood. Through its skillful fusion of iconic design motifs, vibrant colors, and the sun-soaked atmosphere of summer, Gucci invites us to embrace the spirit of carefree indulgence and bask in the delight of the season.
