Fred Perry x Sir Peter Blake Blank Canvas polo shirts now available

Blake1

Not sure if this is being pitched as a piece of art or as a wearable piece of everyday clothing. Whatever way you look at it, the Fred Perry x Sir Peter Blake Blank Canvas polo shirts are now available in limited numbers.

The iconic British pop artist has teamed up with Fred Perry for three shirt styles that have been made and printed in England in a numbered run of 1000. The styles feature rainbow and union jack patches alongside screen printed icons such as stars, hearts and targets. Peter Blake’s signature sign-off sits on each hem and back neck label. There's also some Peter Blake packaging for each one.

A collector's release with a collector's price at £125. Perhaps something to pick up and store way for a rainy day. See the other designs over the page.

Fred Perry x Amy Winehouse spring/summer 2011 range

Winehouse1

The first range was launched last October and was generally well received. A good enough response for a second Fred Perry x Amy Winehouse collection, this time the spring/summer 2011 range.

According to Fred Perry, much of the range is apparently 'a tiki re-working' of Fred Perry classics, including the Harrington and the twin-tipped polo shirt. But with the collection now double its original size (32 pieces), there is also now room for bags, shoes and accessories plus a few new clothing designs.

See over the page for lots more images from the range, including a gingham bowling shirt, a Hawaiian print halter neck dress and shirt and scarlet red hot pants alongside accessories including the Amy barrel bag, wide waist straw belts, a printed silk scarf plus suede and leather moccasins in a variety of colours. On the shelves and on the website from Monday 7th March if you want to buy.

Alfred Sargent suede Chelsea boots for Fred Perry

Fp1

Over on our His Knibs site, we have covered the Fred Perry British Collectables range , but we highlighted these Alfred Sargent for Fred Perry suede Chelsea boots.

These are classic Chelsea boots, with a suede upper, fully leather lined but finished with Fred Perry's trademark twin tipping on the side elastic in a choice of two colours. According to the official blurb, they're also 'Made in England to the highest standards' and created using the Goodyear welting method associated with the finest quality British handmade shoes. There's also an insole that features Fred Perry/Alfred Sargent branding in gold, while the signature Laurel Wreath sits on the leather heel tab.

All of which probably accounts for the high price. They sell for £295 a pair. See the other colour combo over the page.
