Roger Federer has been away from tennis for quite some time now. The next month will mark one year of his retirement. However, this does not stop the Swiss Maestro from fulfilling his deals and collaborations. For instance, he has already signed a deal with Oliver Peoples for co-designed pieces of sunglasses earlier this year. Now, similarly, he has another announcement lined up for a project with Jonathan Anderson.

Jonathan Anderson, an Irish fashion designer, is one of the most well-known figures in the fashion industry, with a net worth of $5 million. He is the Creative Director of globally renowned brands like J.W. Anderson and Loewe. A collaboration with a high-profile designer like Anderson is bound to be a massive one for the former World No.1.
