The award-winning resort and contemporary lifestyle brand unite to create a resort wear collection inspired by the beauty of the Maldives and vibrancy of Los Angeles and Miami
Patina Maldives, Fari Islands and Stampd announce their second collaborative capsule collection, born from a shared passion for mindful design and fresh perspectives. This partnership deepens the creative dialogue begun in their 2023 collaboration, weaving together the tranquil pace of island life with the monochrome and minimalistic style that is iconic of Chris Stamp, the founder and creative director of Stampd.
The collection speaks to modern travellers who seek purposeful and meaningful experiences by presenting an aesthetic that is effortlessly refined, blending surf-ready comfort with metropolitan sophistication for conscious consumers and ocean enthusiasts alike.
Embracing Patina Maldives' and Stamp’s commitment towards environmental stewardship, the pieces are crafted from consciously-selected materials including organic cotton, recycled ocean-bound plastics, and locally sourced natural fibres. This joint passion project features a t-shirt (men's and women's), a unisex white linen shirt, swim shorts (men's and women's), a trucker cap, and a tote— with each piece embodying the collaborative spirit of both brands.
“At Patina Maldives, we believe in the transformative power of fresh mindsets,” said Anthony Gill, the resort’s General Manager. "This collaboration with Stampd captures our ethos of deep connections – whether between nature and design or like-minded individuals who share our passion for experiences that imprint minds. Each piece tells a story of discovery and connection, inviting our guests to embrace new perspectives while respecting our commitment to environment and community, striking that balance between purpose and style perfectly.”
The seeds of this collaboration were planted during Chris Stamp’s immersive journey to Patina Maldives in late 2022. Through the lens of his Polaroid camera, Stamp captured the interplay between light, water, and architecture that defines the resort’s distinctive character. These moments of curiosity evolved into a collection that honours both the serene rhythm of island life with the dynamic pulse of coastal city through urban-ready fashion.
“Growing up in Southern California and now calling Miami home, I’ve always lived at the intersection of ocean and city,” said Chris Stamp. “This collection celebrates the art of discovery, bringing together people who share a passion for thoughtful design and sustainability in luxury. Each piece carries our stamp and the Patina spirit, inspiring wearers to embrace fresh perspectives whether they're exploring urban landscapes or finding serenity by the ocean.”
The collection will be available online starting 11 November 2024 at 8 AM PST/11 AM EST and in store at Stampd La Brea, Los Angeles, as well as Patina Maldives’ Atelier. For more information, visit www.patinahotels.com.
