This week, Glossy launched their annual Storytellers list, celebrating the creatives whose work defined the year in fashion and beauty. The list highlights leaders who shaped resounding narratives, inspired virality and established new industry playbooks over the past 12 months, including our own Calvin George Leung, featured for his work on Gap's Linen Moves campaign that "nearly broke the internet": “You do one thing amazing, and it’s easy to rest on that and take your foot off the gas,” he said. “But consistency is a huge opportunity for us. We need to keep our finger on the pulse and constantly push ourselves into where the world is moving.” Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gtNdMFSZ

Forever original. Since 1969. #howyouweargap
About us
In 1969, Don and Doris Fisher opened the first Gap store on Ocean Avenue in San Francisco. They wanted to make it easier to find a great pair of jeans, and they did. Their denim and records store was a hit, and it grew to become one of the world’s most iconic brands. Today we’re represented in more than 1400 stores in over 40 countries, and online. We have headquarters in New York, London, Shanghai, Tokyo, and, of course, San Francisco. Our unique aesthetic is optimistic cool, elevated American style. Our clothes are crafted with care, with focused attention to thoughtful design. We believe in staying true to our heritage while creating what’s next. Don and Doris Fisher always wanted to “do more than sell clothes.” They wanted to support the people who ran their company, to be active in their communities, and to have a positive impact on the world. Their vision helped transform retail, and we’re still following their lead. We stand for freedom and possibility for all; we champion diverse ideas that transcend generations, geographies and genders. So if you have ideas, if you’re talented, if you want to work with phenomenal people, and if you think we should leave the world a little better than we found it, we’d love to meet you.

Last week, over 600 store leaders from across North America came together in Las Vegas for our "Gap moves." Field Leadership Conference. They immersed themselves in various keynotes, breakout sessions, inclusive leadership trainings and more, with some recognized for their commitment and values-driven dedication through our annual Gap Inc. Fisher Awards and the field's first-ever Blue Box Awards. "This conference is an important moment for our store teams to connect with one another, learn, ask questions and most importantly - to have some fun together as a team," said Blair Dunn, Gap Head of Commerce and Experience. "I look forward to seeing our leaders bring this amazing energy back to all of our stores as we gear up for the back-to-school and fall season." A huge thank you to the teams who brought this moment to life! If you were at FLC, share what you loved the most with #GapFLC2024

We commissioned a survey and found that 86% of parents observe a boost in their child's confidence when they express creativity through fashion. That's why our new back-to-school campaign is focused on allowing kids to express their originality with a fresh assortment of elevated and trend-forward styles in GapKids that ensure they kick off the school year feeling like their most confident selves. “This year’s back-to-school product assortment and campaign celebrates the next generation of GapKids,” said Mark Breitbard, CEO and President of Gap brand. “With styles that encourage self-expression and a campaign centered on optimism, we aim to be a destination where kids find exciting styles that parents love.” Check out the next generation of artistic originals in the campaign film, "Just dance." #JustDanceWithGap https://lnkd.in/exbKkqXK

Sporting her PALACE GAP track jacket, Mia Kretzer from our community partner Girl is NOT a 4 Letter Word (GN4LW) took to Venice with her friends in the organization to showcase their original style over their favorite pastime — skating in their local skate community. Mia is a true original. At only 9 years old, she is an emerging skating prodigy taking home Gold at this year's X Games, making her the youngest athlete to participate and receive a medal at the acclaimed sports event. A huge congrats to her! 🏆 Photo credit: Ian Logan https://lnkd.in/ehYYTGVa

We're ready to wear our pride! We partnered with The GenderCool Project and their Champion Lily to design friendship bracelets for our employees to celebrate Pride Month. Lily's inspiration came from merging both brands' colors while honoring the colors of the Pride flag. GenderCool is a youth-led movement dedicated to helping replace misinformed opinions with positive experiences meeting transgender and non-binary youth. To support their mission, Gap Inc. is donating to the organization and we'll be joining them later this month at the Pride parade in Chicago! Our brand believes in the power of being your authentic self, and we're honored to provide an outlet for our teams to show their pride and express themselves in their own way.
