Vault, Gucci’s experimental concept store, commences the new year with an exclusive Vault Altitude collection to revel in the snow. Bringing together a disparate mix of voices, from historic athletic-wear purveyors to emerging ready-to-wear and accessories designers, the capsules create a high-powered interplay where street style encounters the snowy altitude in a blended chorus that speaks loudly through color.
The limited-edition Vault Altitude array includes ready-to-wear, shoes, accessories, jewelry, and home accessories from eight labels selected for their artistry. Sports brand HEAD presents a vibrant and lively selection of performance wear that plays with the brand’s name. Swedish brand Yniq offers a range of ski goggles elevated by bright colors.

Introducing elegant knits crafted in Downtown LA, The Elder Statesman unveils a vibrant mix of weaving techniques in its assortment. Sea plays with vintage-inspired detailing and technical fabrics to create a feminine wardrobe highlighting Alpine motifs.
London-based jewelry designer Bleue Burnham creates cloud-inspired designs featuring SkyDiamond – diamonds made from atmospheric carbon. Italian jeweler Panconesi presents signature styles elaborated in neon enamel and Diamanti stones. Finally, Gui Rosa returns to Vault with punk-inspired crocheted accessories. Together, the brands have developed a selection designed to cover any terrain, from snowy peaks to city streets.
The Vault Altitude collection marries the streamlined, utilitarian aesthetic of ski gear and the romance of Alpine living with urban street style. The craftsmanship found across the capsule collections emulate the brands’ own distinctive approaches, each offering original new avenues for pushing the boundaries of contemporary self-expression. Created exclusively for Vault, the limited-edition Vault Altitude capsule collections will be available only online at vault.gucci.com from January 9, 2023.
