Coca-Cola is continuing its collaboration with fashion designer stardom, but the new project is not limited to just another fashion bottle or packaging. Diet Coke teamed up with Jean Paul Gaultier, who has become the brand’s new creative director, to produce a series of products, which include online content, European advertising campaigns, retail concepts and yes, a collection of Diet Coke—all of them to be unveiled throughout the year of 2012.

Nivea, the iconic cosmetics brand, which turned 100 last year, is launching new limited-edition packs designed by a fashion designer and leading brand and packaging design agency Bulletproof. The new ‘Nicola de Main’ packaging for Nivea Soft will arrive in stores across UK, Ireland, Scandinavia and The Netherlands in mid-May. The light-hearted and colourful design, which features springs birds, adds to the feeling of the season, sunny cheerfulness and warmth and echoes with the brand’s attitude of making life beautiful.   

Diet Pepsi continues to celebrate its passion for fashion, and announces a new ‘chick’ initiative to be rolled out at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week (February 9-16, NYC) in the coming days. The zero-calorie drink, which is one of the official sponsors of the event, will open its ‘Diet Pepsi Style Studio’ fashion show on February 9 at 8:00 p.m. in The Box at Lincoln Center, where it will unveil collections by four emerging fashion designers, who represent four different regions of the country and infuse their creations with a local spirit and touch. For this project, the brand teamed up with fashion commentator Simon Doonan, who curated the up-and-coming talents.
