Chet Lo reveals Capri-Sun collab bag during LFW show

London-based Asian-American knitwear designer Chet Lo has teamed up with juice pouch brand Capri-Sun on a limited-edition bag - presented at the designer’s ‘Night Market’ AW26 show during London Fashion Week.

The collaboration, celebrates Capri-Sun's exotic new mango and passionfruit flavour, targeting Gen Z with zero added sugar, no artificial colours or flavours, and coming in a fully recyclable and resealable 330ml pouch.

The design reflects the “pure street energy” of South Asian night markets, where drinks in simple plastic bags with a straw are part of the culture. Lo flips that reference into a high fashion accessory through his signature codes: spikey texture, punchy silhouette and “serious camera impact”.

Chet Lo, who counts Kylie Jenner amongst his fans, said: "Collaborating with Capri-Sun has been a dream – taking something so universally recognised and giving it a fresh, fashion-forward twist.

“My vision for this bag was to capture the vibrant, sensory experience of South Asian street culture and blend it with the refreshing, joyful spirit of Capri-Sun. The mango and passionfruit flavour is so refreshing, and I wanted to create something tactile, stylish, and ultimately fun that Gen Z can carry anywhere and truly make their own."

Capri-Sun’s Brand Manager added: “We know Gen Z is all about self-expression, authenticity and finding those unique pieces that speak to their individuality. This collaboration with Chet Lo is more than just a bag launch; it's a fashion moment.

“Capri-Sun has been iconic for over 55 years and we’re excited to bring together the playful, adventurous spirit of the brand with Chet's incredible talent for creating eye-catching, culturally inspired designs.

“The mango and passionfruit pouch isn't just for sipping; it's an 'it-accessory' to be seen with, a fresh take on everyday cool that we know our audience will adore.”

Chet Lo is renowned for his signature ‘spiky’ knitwear. A 2020 Central Saint Martins’ graduate, he launched his eponymous brand during the pandemic.

Capri-Sun was launched in 1969 in West Germany by Rudolf Wild, originally named ‘Capri-Sonne’ and designed as a natural, portable fruit juice drink. The pouch-packaged beverage became a kids’ lunchbox favourite in 100 countries, notably in the US with licensees including Kraft Foods. As of 2023, approximately six billion pouches are sold per year globally.
