Alexandra Gucci’s AGCF Announces Inaugural Art Auction at LA Fashion Week
The art auction entitled Unità, is a celebration of unity and positive impact
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Nov. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AGCF, the purpose-driven luxury fashion house founded by Alexandra Gucci, launches its inaugural Unità art auction event on November 12th, to be held at the brand’s Rodeo Drive boutique. The event kicks off LA Fashion Week presented by N4XT Experiences and will feature works from four talented female artists–each offering their unique interpretation of unity and its power to create positive change.
“Our inaugural art auction represents the core of what AGCF stands for–hope, compassion and positive impact through unity–or what we call, Unità. This event is an opportunity to demonstrate how luxury can be a force for change. We are not just showcasing art, but the power of Unità,” said Alexandra Gucci.
All proceeds from the Unità art auction will be donated to The Mama Bear Effect, a nonprofit organization dedicated to building stronger families and protecting children. Through their efforts, The Mama Bear Effect aims to raise awareness, provide educational resources, and empower communities to create a culture where every child is protected, respected, and empowered. The event amplifies AGCF’s commitment to bringing purpose to luxury fashion by uniting people who believe luxury should lift up not only the person wearing it, but society as a whole. As part of this commitment, AGCF pledges 20% of its profits to protecting young women and children globally.
