An aesthetically striking and intimate fashion photo essay marks the release of Mallet's [Autumn/Winter 2022 collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025). The campaign carries a discernable sentimental value, celebrating Mallet's owner and creative director's London origins. For Tommy Mallet, who is a "true London lad," Pellici's "has always been [a home from home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-the-city)." To non-British people, Pellicci's is " representative of the classic British ‘caff’, a hub for the local community, family run for over a century."

To pay homage to this safe haven, Mallet staged a shoot and produced a fashion photo essay on the premises of the establishment. While the photographs surely call attention to the fashion brand's new Autumn/Winter 2022 range, they also tell the story of the genesis of Mallet.

It is important to remember your origins, especially for a brand that continues to develop, pivot, and change.
