PRODUCER/MUSICIAN MARK RONSON LOVES FRED PERRY


this looks the way of a Londoner


Limited editions, unlimited celebrations

When your label comes steeped in sport and pop-culture history, you'd better be prepared to fĂȘte a few anniversaries. And, twist their arm, the guys at Fred Perry are: Having just dropped three shirts produced in limited edition to celebrate the 30th anniversary of seminal ska group the Specials, the brand now continues its collaboration with Raf Simons to further commemorate the Perry centennial. The new Simons-designed pieces—including a suit, shirt, and tie (above), and a couple of polos (below)—are directly modeled after an outfit the three-time Wimbledon champ wore in 1947. They'll be available in September. Sorry to say, the ping-pong sets the company sent out to editors recently (bottom) won't be. We're not totally sure of the reason for those, but the guy was a monster on the table.Raf Simons x Fred Perry 100th Anniversary Collection, available in September, fredperry.com
