Frank Ocean’s Homer has unveiled a new collection with Prada.
Now available at the Homer store in New York and on Signal at 212-410-3300, the link-up sees Homer reimagining three pieces from Prada in four colors. Featured are the Anorak, the Backpack, and the Belt Bag. The collection, made in Italy by Prada, also features internal co-branded tags.
Back in August, Ocean’s independent luxury company unveiled its first collection, which focused on a blend of fine and high-end jewelry pieces and printed silk scarves. In a lengthy Instagram note to fans and collaborators at the time, Ocean detailed the overall Homer goal of making pieces that will stand the test of time.
Get a closer look at the limited edition Prada collection below. As mentioned in a press release on Friday, fans can expect this to mark merely the “first presentation” in an ongoing artistic conversation between the two brands. For Homer store hours, click here.
“Hand on my heart, this project has kept my mind moving and my imagination turning throughout it all,” Ocean, whose Homer launch marked the culmination of three years of building, said last month. “All of my work now is dedicated to my family. Everything. My hope is to make things that last, that are hard to destroy, set it in stone. I’m so fucking happy for everyone involved and I admire you and am proud of you and couldn’t have done it without you.”
Also last month, Paul Tollett—the CEO of AEG subsidiary Goldenvoice—told the Los Angeles Times that Ocean would be headlining the 2023 edition of Coachella. Of course, he was originally slated to headline the 2020 version of the festival, which was ultimately called off (and then called off again this year) due to the pandemic.
