Speaking about her inspiration for the collection, Monique Pean said, "I wanted to create classic pieces accentuated by bright colors, which is what comes to mind when I think of Gap. Made of sustainable and eco-friendly materials such as naturally shed buffalo horn coconut, buri twine, and organic cotton, my CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund Gap collection incorporates the signature organic shapes from my fine jewelry collection with dashes of magenta and lime green. Each piece from the collection will provide clean drinking water to one person for 20 years. The capsule collection hints at the Caribbean and is perfect for summer beach days."
"For me Gap is a classic American brand. For this project I wanted to take iconic American menswear pieces and purify and modernize them. To me, that's the essence of the Gap aesthetic," said Patrik Ervell of his inspiration.
"I was inspired to create simple and accessible pieces for summer; while keeping in mind a unique Sophie Theallet signature feeling to them," said Sophie Theallet of her inspiration.
