A heartwarming fashion show was held on Park Avenue in New York, and the new season interpreted the beautiful vision of the brand's classic heritage and style reinvention, telling the story of individuals and partners from their comfort zones, and can express themselves without restraint, just like people from all walks of life every day.
It's a feast that defines ideas with Coach's unique fashion code and pays homage to historical heritage. From the perspective of young people, the autumn collection features handmade shear, leather and denim pieces with a more youthful cut and colour. Incorporate a modern and trendy attitude into classic leather pieces such as trench coats, jackets and skirts, and experiment with floor-length fits. The brand's classic sheep shearing leather process has also been innovated in this design concept, making a younger attempt, with a bolder and avant-garde treatment of materials: colored metal texture, silhouette motorcycle jacket cut, metal accessories sheared sheep edging and hand-aging.
Inspired by Executive Creative Director Stuart Vevers' vision to redefine Coach craftsmanship through exploration, innovation and awareness, the use of sustainable materials is brought into the brand's design philosophy. For the first time, the collection is crafted from recycled leather offcuts, each piece being a one-of-a-kind leather garment. At the same time, the brand also expanded the Coach (Re)Loved project, which aims to reinvent and give new life to Coach bags, extending the concept of "reinventing" to the footwear category and introducing new leather sneakers with uppers made from old Coach bags that have been reconstructed. The collection also features colourful silk chiffon dresses, dyed with botanicals such as logs, safflower and calendula, and designed with minimal material – using fabric crumbs from the time of the cut as a touch. Finally, the collection features accessories redesigned from repurposed vintage pieces.

For leather goods, Stuart Vevers also brings new iconic patent leather handbags, including mini backpacks and Penn bags – vintage pieces inspired by the brand's millennials. There are also Coach Shapes handbags with apple, heart and star silhouettes. An oversized leather tote made from vegetable tanning that reflects the brand's heritage and style.
Coach has also innovated on previous favourites, introducing handcrafted worn denim with a closet knit and a Superman and Mickey Mouse motif.
"The inspiration for the fall collection comes from the belief in self, that when you have the courage to express your true self, you also influence those around you to do so." Stuart Vevers said, "This collection is a true interpretation of Coach's traditional aesthetics, redefined through the attitude and way in which the new student represents the true self. We will always be 'true to ourselves', now and in the future." Fashion comes from life, so I conceived this warm launch event to let everyone enjoy the joy of gathering, which is also the meaning of fashion for me. ”
Inspired by the small gatherings, the close-up presentation throughout the autumn launch gave guests a more realistic visual experience, and the texture of the works at close up also released the inner energy of the brand, which also enhanced the emotional communication between people. Following the Spring 2023 fashion show, the Coach Fall Collection returns here, an experience that blurs the boundaries between the real world and the modern and modern scenes, where modern scenes collide with youthful gestures and open up endless possibilities. Live models are also casting from the street, showing the fashion tension of the new generation of young people more realistically, and Coach invites you to join the personality journey that reflects the trend and the collision of feelings.
