GUCCI LE
MARCHÉ DES
MERVEILLES
PART Y

The beautiful illustrations
of Thai artist Phannapast
Taychamaythakool were front
and centre at Gucci’s Pacifi c
Place boutique when A-listers
attended a cocktail party to
celebrate the brand’s latest
collection of fi ne jewellery,
Le Marché des Merveilles,
which explores the animal
kingdom. The works by
Phannapast, who was
discovered by Gucci creative
director Alessandro Michele
on Instagram, bring to life
three fairy tales written by
fellow Thai creative Aracha
Cholitgul in a joint project
for Gucci. Aracha’s tales,
which have been published in
a limited edition book with
Phannapast’s illustrations, tell
of a “Wonder Factory” where
animals create the marvellous
jewels of Gucci’s latest line.
