Raf Simons Collaborates With Fred Perry

As if Belgian designer Raf Simons doesn’t have enough to do overseeing his own eponymous label and as creative director of Jil Sander, which just opened a concept store on Howard St, he’s also launching a 12-piece collection of polo shirts and knitwear in collaboration with Fred Perry.

Inspired by Fred Perry’s 1960s skiwear, the all-black, slim-fitting line includes a chic short-sleeve mohair turtleneck sweater, a patterned, knit polo shirt, a full button-down long-sleeve pique polo and sleek trousers. No doubt the pieces, branded with vintage Fred Perry laurels, will be must-haves for Fall. The collaboration will last for two seasons, so stay tuned for Spring.
