Having started his career at LouisVuitton before joining Bally, Celine and Mulberry, JohnnyCoca says his 'journey has now come full circle.'
The role is a perfect fit for Coca for a number of reasons –first, he was single-handedly responsible for reviving Mulbery’s handbag offering by reimagining the brand’s logo, introducing two new bag styles and reintroducing men’s accessories during his time at the British house. And second, he actually began his career as a leather goods designer for the house after he graduated.
Prior to his work at Mulberry, Coca was the head design director for leather goods, accessories, shoes and jewellery at Celine for five years, and was at Bally before that. Coca joins an all-star roster at the house. In addition to Ghesquière, Vuitton is also home to Virgil Abloh and Francesca Amfitheatrof . Speaking of his appointment, Coca said in a release that his “journey has now come full circle, to the place where I was lucky enough to hone my passion firsthand and learn the fundamentals of leather craftsmanship in the ateliers at Asnières.
