Ann-Sofie Back for Fred Perry Blank Canvas

Fred Perry commissioned Swedish designer Ann-Sofie Back to develop a capsule for the brand's Blank Canvas campaign.

Based on her creativity, Back has created a range of garment that are so appealing that we can't afford to just let it pass.

This collaboration was seen circulating on tabloids last October, however, we decided to show this cos' we think it's definitely worth it. A little out-dated, but it's definitely worth it.




According to the site, Back drew inspiration from products and issues that made her felt uncomfortable.

Get a closer look at the collection over here.
