Sean Wotherspoon works in collaboration with GAP to launch a new vintage GAP collection that celebrates past eras. The fashion imprint is recognized for its minimal design language throughout its time, rooted in versatility and comfort. For the new capsule collection, the designer drew archival looks from GAP's 80s, 90s, and 2000s catalog.
Wotherspoon shares his own past with the brand to Highsnobiety, stating “My relationship with GAP goes pretty deep. My mom worked at the GAP at our local mall in the late nineties and I was always dressed in GAP head to toe growing up. It’s pretty fun looking back at photos and seeing some of the classic GAP fits that so many children and adults were rocking. My mom has been helping me dig up old photos so it’s been a fun family project getting her involved too.”
