Say goodbye to Salvatore Ferragamo, say hello to Ferragamo
New season, new look for the Italian brand, who begin a bold new chapter with London-based designer Maximilian Davis at the helm. Designed by renowned graphic designer Peter Saville, who also designed Riccardo Tisci’s Burberry logo, the house’s new logo is described as “an energetically streamlined style… recalling the classical stone inscriptions that inspired Renaissance artists.”

In the words of Peter Saville himself: “The equity of Florence is in the culture of the company: that led me to the choice of a classic font. The vision is exacting and modern. Thereafter, the font is reduced and becomes modernist. Then there is the craft that is quintessentially Ferragamo, which is condensed in the idea of an inscription set in stone. Within this tension lies the new logotype and the complex balance it expresses.”

Nadia Lee Cohen, Gant and Wrangler nailed Americana
Doing what she does best, Nadia Lee Cohen shot the new Gant x Wrangler collab campaign as a surreal ranch. Here, Lee Cohen becomes a rodeo star atop a horse and a lassoing cowgirl, while bootcut denim, suede truckers and varsity jackets sit comfortably on hay bales and arid desertscapes.
