Who's Next?
If you had the Premier League’s first-ever Creative Director appointment on your 2023 bingo card then hats off to you as South London-based football club, Crystal Palace, names Kenny Annan-Jonathan as the man in charge of their future seasonal off-field collections and fashion partnerships. Marking a significant landmark in football’s fusion with fashion, the local-born creative arrives with a proven track record of attracting high-profile partnerships for world-class athletes – including Palace’s cult hero Wilfried Zaha – thanks to his sports marketing agency, The MailRoom.
Getting to work straight off the bat with the task of launching the club’s Fall/Winter 2023 collection, the first-of-its-kind appointment is a statement of the the team’s desire to expose themselves to markets beyond the world of sport.
