Editor's Notes: On the forecast for JW Anderson's next runway show? Frogs.

Creative director Jonathan Anderson has taken to Instagram with a sneak preview of the label's FW23 menswear collection, set to debut at Milan Fashion Week on January 15. Congruent with Anderson's whimsical aesthetic (remember that pigeon clutch?), the designer has teamed up with Wellipets, the British rain brand known for its frog-shaped rain boots.

Wellipets' signature calf-high boots, topped with bulging amphibian eyes at the upper and a red mouth at the toe, is revamped as waterproof slip-on. There's no word yet on when the collaboration will release or if we can expect to see more zoological footwear on the runway but knowing Anderson, FW23 is bound to be a delight.

Anderson's teaser follows a mysterious turn of events for the creative director's namesake brand. Last Friday, JW Anderson's official Instagram account was wiped, its pre-existing feed replaced with two images: a loading circle and a close-up of a man's hand reaching into a tub of Vaseline.

While Anderson has yet to provide an explanation of the seemingly random posts, one thing is clear: he's got something up his sleeve.

Until more is revealed at Milan Fashion Week, it's anyone's guess what the designer is working on. A Vaseline collab? (Unlikely.) More Wellipets? (Yes please!)
