Vespa brings style to winter with new capsule collection
Between icy hues and creative experiments, riding has never been so stylish
November 1st, 2024
Vespa is back in the spotlight with a second captivating clothing collection: the Vespa Snake Capsule. A journey through enchanting, silent winter landscapes, the capsule celebrates the theme of change and transformation, exploring styles, innovation, materials and shapes in a constant quest. The new winter collection is the second chapter in an adventure of stylistic discovery, part of the brand's ‘ empty space ’ lifestyle project: a continuous, never-ending journey that began with Summer Edit, Vespa's very first clothing capsule. Inspired by the figure of the snake, the central symbol of the Chinese lunar calendar for the coming year, the Vespa Snake Capsule focuses on this mysterious and fascinating creature, the embodiment of rebirth and transformation, a theme that runs through the entire collection and is deployed throughout the garments and accessories.
The collection offers a selection of revisited winter pieces, adorned with refined fabrics and meticulous details that turn each item into a wearable work of art. Like a snake that changes colour to hide, defend or seduce itself, the cold, iridescent fabrics selected for the capsule reflect this talent in a winter setting of immaculate snow. Among the key pieces is a bomber jacket in icy, iridescent shades, adorned with graffiti-style embroidered patches in grey and white, and embellished with a maxi-snake at the back. The wool and cashmere knitwear, comprising cardigans and relaxed-fit jumpers, adds a timeless touch, while the tracksuit ensemble adorned with serpentine motifs adds an urban, contemporary note.
The accessories, also marked by the snake symbol, complete the capsule's artisanal experience. They combine design and functionality, offering complete looks with a timeless aesthetic but resolutely modern charm. Chromatically, the collection evolves in a palette of iridescent shades, from ice to pearl grey and pure white, evoking the snowy landscapes of winter. The Vespa Snake Capsule is available online in the space dedicated to Vespa's ‘empty space’ lifestyle project. Until 19 November, it will also be on sale at the Vespa pop-up on the second floor of La Rinascente in Rome, Via del Tritone.
