It would be easy to look at the rise of the illustrator-as-style influencer and say it’s connected to the fact that people aren’t out and about, dressed up and ready for Scott Schuman or Joshua Woods to capture them on the street. Or maybe that virtually anybody can cosplay Bill Cunningham with the aid of their iPhone. And that’s certainly part of it: there are a million selfies and candid shots of people standing on city streets, but only a few people can really draw. Mr. Slowboy and his contemporaries also present a nice change of pace, a different way of looking at style. In closing, the collection serves up a series of bags, each of which is designed for the on-the-go. A 24-liter holdall can be attached to the front of the collaborative bike, as can a new wax city bag, which boasts brass hardware and leather trims.

Tell us a bit about yourself and the journey that has led you to becoming an established illustrator. As for Andrew, he has been reading for a few hours already, as usual, on his favorite chair found in a second-hand shop.Thank you for taking the time to chat with us, Fei. For the blog readers that don’t know you, can you tell us a little about yourself and your work? I think it is nice when other brands recognise and appreciate your work. For example recently some car and watch brands approached me. If their subject or item fit my style or if the project is fashion related I would work with them. I wouldn’t do a project with a brand that either has nothing to do with fashion or if it is completely different from my aesthetics. They often have lunch at Flor, carrots, salsa macha, mascarpone that look nothing like carrots, accompanied by a grilled broccoli and herb salad. It’s been my second time in Florence during Pitti but first time when I got in to the fair at Fortezza. And I always have my notebook with me now, so hopefully I won’t loose this one.

The first collaborations will launch in the UK with two artists who have achieved worldwide recognition and attracted large communities to their social media channels thanks to their highly imaginative work. These artists include the photographer Rich McCor, better known as Paperboyo, and Fei Wang, contemporary artist and Chinese illustrator known under the pseudonym of Mr.Slowboy. They often draw their inspiration from Merci's temporary exhibitions, which they love to walk around except on weekends and Wednesdays, the children's day. The character designed for the Bolin Webb R1 razor was inspired by a young gentleman in a navy pinstripe suit in Mayfair. His look, confidence, and style define him as a quintessentially modern Londoner – a mixture of heritage and contemporary fashion, a message well suited to Bolin Webb. Have you always been interested in fashion? I mean your illustrations caught my eye because they are very stylish, the way you create the looks is really good.Paperboyo is an English photographer who has turned what once was a hobby into a full-time profession playing with perspective, history, and architecture. His travels have taken him to some of the world’s most stunning locations including New York, Rio de Janeiro, Dubai, and the moais of Easter Island.

As the beautiful design of an exciting new partner, this limited-edition razor may be our most striking model yet.

I worked in advertising as an Art Director and Creative Director for about 13 years. After achieving most of the desirable “goals” in the industry, I realised It wasn’t quite fun anymore and my true passion still lay in drawing.I also like to think that it is like Simpson. You know, Mr Slowboy now becomes a specific world. When you get into it, you become a pert of it too. That’s why, for example, when I did illustrations of Jake (ex The Armoury) or Ethan I think they became part of the Slowboy world too :).
