Björk does Gucci in her new video for “The Gate”

Iceland’s most famous singer Björk has released an incredible video to accompany her track “The Gate”, directed by Andrew Thomas Huang. In it we see her evolving within a fantastical world sporting a sumptuous dress conceived by Alessandro Michele, creative director at the house of Gucci.

Björk : “The Gate”

Premiered during London Fashion Week a few days ago,  Björk’s new video for “The Gate” is a dreamlike excursion into the heart of a galaxy that combines geometric forms and fantastical imaginings, and marks the Icelandic artist’s return to the scene with a bang.

 

In the video directed by Andrew Thomas Huang, we see a most majestic gown by Gucci’s  creative director, Alessandro Michele, that took more than 900 hours of work and is in perfect harmony with the retro-futurist world of the singer.

 

From experimental pop and trip-hop to a clash between hip-hop and electronica, Björk has always been a tricky one to classify. While her last album Vulnicura, released in 2015 was crafted after her break-up from film maker and sculptor Matthew Barney, this, her ninth studio album, entitled Utopia, is not so dark.
