Forever 21 is no stranger to nostalgic collaborations and the classic Forever 21 x Coca-Cola collection testifies to that. The capsule — which comprises 70 styles across women’s and men's fashion swimwear, accessories, beauty products, jewelry, hair accessories, and handbags — merges the timeless allure of Coca-Cola with Forever 21's fashion-forward designs. The result is a blend of retro chic with a contemporary flair suitable for various occasions.
The Forever 21 x Coca-Cola effortlessly embodies retro Americana. The silhouettes are complicated and enhanced by the inclusion of vintage Coca-Cola prints. For women, the collection offers retro satin jackets, vintage P.E. shorts, classic denim, and accessories like rhinestone-encrusted earrings and water bottles, infusing glamour and early 2000s nostalgia. Men's styles evoke a retro sporty vibe with nods to racing, soccer, and baseball.
