Lately, Gucci announced the publication of a special limited-edition book, Epiphany, created by photographer Ari Marcopoulos.

Produced in association with Gucci and published by IDEA books, Epiphany features images captured during a shoot that took place in Milan to document the pre-fall 2016 women’s and men’s collections designed by Gucci’s Creative Director Alessandro Michele. The pictures are all by Marcopoulos and have the direct and loose feeling for which he is known.

The book will come inserted in a bubble wrap envelope with a holographic Gucci snake sticker on the front and a black silk screen-printed Gucci logo on the back. The cover of the book will feature a transparent pocket in which a photograph will be housed. This photograph, an image created by Marcopoulos at the shoot, will be printed as a 15cm x 10cm postcard. There are 13 different images that have been chosen for inclusion in the front cover pockets, and these will be assigned to copies randomly. On the back cover of the publication there will be a quote from Alessandro Michele.

The book will be released in a limited edition of 1,000 copies, and as part of the worldwide launch at Dover Street Market New York; it will then be on sale during the Pitti Uomo exhibition in Florence in June, only to be followed in London.
