raf simons fred perry 100th 1 Raf Simons x Fred Perry 100th Anniversary Collection

Paying tribute to the 100th Anniversary of, arguably Britain’s greatest tennis player of all time, Fred Perry, frequent collaborator Raf Simons contributes his design expertise to a reinterpretation of the classic outfit worn by Mr. Fred Perry in 1947 as well as several other commemorative items. This special collection will feature the outfit in its entirety, down to a pair of tennis shoes reworked into a classic brogue silhouette, celebrating Perry’s remarkable legacy. These commemorative offerings look to make their debut in the coming months at select Fred Perry accounts as the centenary celebrations begin today, marking the birth of the late, great Frederick John Perry. In addition to the festivities, a 100th Anniversary website has been launched, which can be accessed here.
