Portraying a 360 representation of the brand as it stands today, the imagery – shot by Karim Sadli and inspired by cinematic stills – sees Cloud wearing a mixture of pieces from the Amiri back catalogue: a checkerboard faux-fur coat from FW22 and signature kick-flare tailoring paired with textured vests and sneakers.
