Milan Fashion Week is in full swing and Gucci debuted its Spring/Summer 2018 collection. But one of the most major moments of Gucci’s runway show actually happened backstage.

Dapper Dan, who recently announced he’s collaborating with the luxury label, was spotted backstage with Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele. This photo definitely reinforces the new partnership between the Harlem couturier and Gucci. We especially look forward to the designs that come from the collection Dapper Dan and Gucci are dreaming up. We’ll keep you posted once we have more details.

As for the runway show itself, some of the highlights of the collection included a women’s embroidered tracksuit inspired by the ‘80s, crystal studded sunglasses and a Gucci monogram fanny pack, which proved the new bag trend isn’t going anywhere. Additionally, the Gucci logo still remained dominant throughout the collection.

A$AP Rocky was also spotted sitting front row while decked out in Gucci.
