Scotch & Soda unveils Fall-Winter'24 Campaign and Capsule Collection with first global ambassador Joe Jonas

Scotch & Soda unveils Fall-Winter'24 Campaign and Capsule Collection with first global ambassador Joe Jonas

Scotch & Soda, the Amsterdam-based fashion brand, proudly unveils its highly anticipated Fall-Winter 2024 campaign and collaboration with international pop star, songwriter, actor  and brand ambassador Joe Jonas. The Fall 2024 campaign marks the start of a bold new era for Scotch & Soda, infusing an exciting energy, while elevating and expanding the core collections and best-selling silhouettes that have long represented the globally-recognized Scotch & Soda brand.




As ambassador for the brand, and part of the seasonal campaign, Jonas models both his exclusive capsule collection, as well as the mainline Scotch & Soda range. The exclusive collection, co-designed with Jonas, seamlessly blends Scotch & Soda's signature style with the artist's vibrant, playful fashion sense. Expect bold colors, striking prints, rich textures, and tailoring crafted from premium fabrics—a perfect fusion of creativity and craftsmanship, with Jonas deeply involved in every step of the process.

Originally founded in 1985, the Scotch & Soda brand is now managed by Bluestar Alliance, a New York-based brand management company. Scotch & Soda was founded upon its dedication to the free spirit of Amsterdam, offering original designs rooted in endless optimism, individuality and the power of self-expression. After acquiring Scotch & Soda just last year, Bluestar Alliance set to reinvigorate the long-adored brand, famously lauded for its unconventional, artistic view on fashion. With its first global ambassador and Fall-Winter 2024 brand campaign, Scotch & Soda continues its sartorial journey of discovery through energetic collections that champion creative freedom and inclusivity.

For Scotch & Soda, the partnership with Joe Jonas offered an opportunity to collaborate with one of the most dynamic artists of his generation. Joe Jonas, an adored singer, songwriter, actor and photographer, has also become well-known for his original and expressive sense of style, creatively pairing rich colors, denim, knitwear, tailored, vintage pieces and bold accessories that inspire curiosity and conversation. With a strong point of view and global trend-setting influence, Jonas was the perfect choice to represent the optimism of the Scotch & Soda brand.

As a complement to the core Fall-Winter 2024 collection, inspired by the theme "Free Your Mind," and the journey of the free spirit through the world's greatest cities, the design team delved into artistic motifs, architecture, landmarks, and the Beat Generation Writers.

Joe Jonas has crafted a capsule collection that invites fans around the globe to embark on a reflective and forward thinking journey with him. The Scotch & Soda x Joe Jonas capsule collection includes a mix of men's and unisex clothing and accessories that capture Joe's confident approach to style and his unique vision for the brand within its primary categories. With total creative control, Jonas curated every detail, from the capsule collection's range of styles, silhouettes, fabrications, prints, trims, to the campaign imagery he is featured in. Jonas approached the process similarly to how he creates music. With a journey that included a deepdive into his wider creative process, Jonas thought about the story he wanted to tell and utilized 'Cup of Joe,' his personal diary of photography, as the foundation for his creative vision, drawing inspiration from his vintage-inspired aesthetic to customized artwork that reflects his creative style and distinct artistic expression.

"Our aim with this collaboration was to create a dynamic capsule that felt elevated and authentic while keeping the core spirit of the brand intact, and I believe we achieved just that," says Eran Kaim, Chief Product Officer. "Joe's unique creative eye and distinct sense of style, married with the expert design in the core categories that Scotch & Soda is known for, which includes denim, knitwear and tee's, which has proven to be just the perfect combination and we're very honored to bring his vision to life."

Inspired by the American West, vintage Americana, the seventies and Joe's personal photography and writings, the capsule offers a dynamic wardrobe that feels personal, lived-in and built to last. Key pieces include tailored utility and workwear jackets, ringer tees with custom graphics, two piece sets, sport-inspired polos and on-trend accessories including trucker hats and versatile printed scarves.

"As a longtime fan of Scotch & Soda I am excited to share the collaboration we have created with the world. The creative freedom that I was given made this such a fun and rewarding experience, so I'm really looking forward to launching the collection," says Joe Jonas.

Offering a refined color palette of muted pastel blues, ecrus, charcoal greys, and pinks, seamlessly integrating with Scotch & Soda core offerings, the capsule collection is composed of versatile and wearable pieces that embody Joe's vision of crafting contemporary designs with a sartorial point of view, that resonate with the brand's identity and perfectly compliment the broader fall collection.

Joey Gabbay, CEO of Bluestar Alliance, the parent company that acquired Scotch & Soda last year, shared "Joe Jonas is one of the most dynamic, creative voices of his generation. The launch of this partnership is a fundamental component of Scotch & Soda's growth; and allows us to celebrate incredible artistic talent, while exposing new consumers to the brand in the U.S. and around the globe. We're honored to be in partnership with such a creative and well-regarded artist such as Joe."

The Scotch & Soda x Joe Jonas collection is now available globally at scotchandsoda.com, Scotch & Soda stores and select retailers. Price ranges include accessories $48-$68.00, tops and sweatshirts $58-178, bottoms $128-188 and jackets $268-788. Scotch & Soda is available at premium retailers and specialty boutiques worldwide.

Coach Introduces Fall Campaign, "Unlock Your Courage"

Coach Introduces Fall Campaign, "Unlock Your Courage"

Coach today launches "Unlock Your Courage," a campaign starring new global ambassadors Elle Fanning, Charles Melton, Nazha and Storm Reid, and returning Coach Family members Jayson Tatum, Kōki, and Youngji Lee. The campaign introduces Coach's Fall 2024 collection in a series of stories about having the courage to choose authentic self-expression over the idea of perfection, and is the newest exploration of "The Courage to Be Real," Coach's purpose-grounded platform inspiring people to express the many sides of who they are.


Coach's "Unlock Your Courage" campaign reshapes the brand's talent constellation with the addition of exciting new ambassadors —a global group uniquely aligned with Coach's grounding purpose, the Courage to Be Real. In their own ways, each of these individuals display the kind of authenticity, courageous spirit, talent and style that make them stand-outs in their fields, and strong examples of how to confidently explore the many facets of one's identity. 


The Fall campaign reflects the ways today's generation can sometimes feel constrained by their own expectations of perfection. Starting from this initial place of vulnerability, the campaign stories then flip the narrative, with each character unlocking their inner courage to break free from their ideas of perfection and instead celebrate their unique self-expression.



"My approach to the "Unlock Your Courage," campaign matched my design process for the Fall collection," said Creative Director Stuart Vevers. "We focused on the tension between something romantic and picturesque and something very real and spontaneous; a sense of the lived in but compelling aesthetic that typifies the spirit of New York. Elaine's dynamic shots of our friends of the house all amplify that message of authenticity and the beauty that comes from embracing the imperfections of a well-lived life in well-loved fashion."



In the campaign films directed by Camille Summers-Valli, Coach bags act as a catalyst for the characters' transformations, animating with a life of their own to help each individual tap into their inner confidence. Elle Fanning portrays a young woman preparing for an audition, who then gets a burst of confidence from the Brooklyn bag she carries with her. Charles Melton's character is arriving at a first date when his Hitch backpack helps him show up as his authentic self. In Nazha's film, she plays a young woman walking up to a crowded party, and her Times Square Tabby bag gives her the assurance to arrive as only she could. The new ambassadors are joined in the campaign films by returning Coach Family member, rapper Youngji Lee, playing a young woman who initially feels self-conscious at a family gathering, before her Tabby bag pulls her out of her shell. These films are complemented by a series of photographs by British photographer Elaine Constantine, which capture carefree moments of inner liberation and feature the full cast, including Storm Reid, who makes her debut with the brand in eyewear, and Jayson Tatum, for eyewear and watches, along with Kōki, featuring the new Times Square Tabby. Constantine worked closely with each individual to achieve a natural, uninhibited style of portraiture that evokes spontaneity and human emotion.



"Self-expression is one of the key pillars of the Courage to Be Real, our purpose here at Coach," says Coach Global Chief Marketing Officer and Tapestry Chief Growth Officer Sandeep Seth. "We've found again and again that the chase for perfection can hold us back from expressing ourselves authentically. 'Unlock Your Courage' is meant to inspire our consumers to break from that impossible standard and embrace the many facets of who they are."



Another star of the campaign is Coach's iconic Tabby bag, which appears in new silhouettes and finishes with the debut of the Times Square Tabby. Alongside the new Brooklyn bag, this latest iteration of the Tabby is a highlight of the Coach Fall 2024 collection, inspired by Creative Director Stuart Vevers' vision of youthful interpretations of Coach's American design language. The campaign also features tailored silhouettes and ready-to-wear essentials including denim trousers, tops and knitwear, along with an array of New York-inspired charms such as yellow taxis, postcards and the Statue of Liberty.



"Unlock Your Courage" follows Coach's "Find Your Courage" and "Wear Your Shine" campaigns grounded in Expressive Luxury, Coach's vision of a new kind of luxury focused on self-expression as defined by today's generation.
