After launching a limited run of fried chicken-themed face masks, KFC set out to work with an emerging designer to create an apparel collaboration, and the KFC x Amos Ananda collection was born. The collab boasts 11 apparel pieces like hoodies and Hawaiian shirts, plus accessories like bucket hats and tote bags, all in the brand's signature color scheme.
During the pandemic, designer Amos Ananda Yeo returned to his home of Singapore and he was discovered by KFC when he launched a home business selling a local fried prawn fritter dish. As such, the exclusive collab is limited regionally to Singapore and the red and white KFC x Amos Ananda streetwear styles can be found through the fried chicken chain's official store on Shopee.
