Since their collaboration in 2018, Gucci and Yuko Higuchi have captivated people not only in Japan but around the world through art projects and limited edition items. Yuko Higuchi's fantastical and poetic works, featuring anthropomorphic animals and mysterious creatures, combine with Gucci's creative spirit to create a poetic and unique aesthetic.

In this new special collection, Yuko Higuchi's cat characters, Bo and Boris, appear on a variety of items. The lineup includes handbags, small leather goods, key charms, hats, silk products and stationery, all featuring the beloved cats, who are believed to bring good fortune. They are perfect for purchasing new items in time for the lucky summer days that occur from July to August, and make ideal gifts as well as collector's pieces.

Wallets include two models: a wallet with a chain strap that can also be used as a mini bag, and a zip-around wallet, as well as matching card cases, each featuring a Bo or Boris charm or design.
