Global Ambassador and Design Collaborator Will Partner with FOSSIL on a Global Campaign and Fall 2027 and Spring 2028 Collections
The next chapter builds on an established creative relationship, bringing FOSSIL and Jonas together for an expanded product collaboration. Having already partnered on a co-designed collection, Jonas will continue working alongside FOSSIL's design team, contributing his distinctive creative perspective and personal approach to style to two new collections. The evolution of this collaboration reflects the strength of the partnership and a shared commitment to creating watches that bring together FOSSIL's design heritage with Jonas' individual point of view as an avid watch collector.
“FOSSIL has always been a brand I've felt a personal connection to. It was the first watch I owned growing up. FOSSIL was the brand that first sparked my interest in watches, and what started with that first watch has grown into a genuine passion for collecting timepieces,” said Nick Jonas. “My partnership with the brand has given me the opportunity to bring that appreciation into something creative, and the success of our first collection made me even more excited about what we can accomplish together during our next chapter.”
“Nick is much more than a global ambassador for FOSSIL. As a shareholder, creative partner, and ambassador, he has a genuine stake in the growth and future of our brand,” said Franco Fogliato, Chief Executive Officer of FOSSIL Group. “He understands what makes FOSSIL distinctive, from the innovation, nostalgia and heritage that have built an enduring connection with consumers, to the innovation and design that will keep us moving forward. The success of our first collection demonstrated the power of bringing his creative perspective together with our design expertise, and we're excited to build on that momentum with two new collections.”
The expanded partnership is part of FOSSIL's continued investment in demand creation, building on marketing and storytelling initiatives that strengthen the brand's cultural relevance and deepen consumer engagement. By partnering with influential voices who bring an authentic connection to the brand, FOSSIL is creating more meaningful ways to connect with consumers, translate cultural momentum into brand affinity and bring its design and product stories to life. Nick Jonas will play a central role in shaping FOSSIL's brand narrative through 2027 and into 2028.

NICK JONAS
A multi-talented singer, songwriter, actor, and producer, Nick Jonas’ illustrious career has spanned across music, acting, writing, producing, and philanthropy over the past 25 years. He first began his career on stage at the age of eight, booking his first gig as Tiny Tim in an off-Broadway production of A Christmas Carol in 2000 at the legendary Madison Square Garden. Immediately catching the eye of Broadway producers, he went on to perform in theatrical productions of Annie Get Your Gun (2001), Beauty and the Beast (2002), Les Misérables (2003), The Sound of Music (2003), How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (2012), The Last Five Years (2025), and more. Beyond theater, Nick’s story as one-third of Jonas Brothers remains well-documented—especially given the band’s chart-dominating 2019 comeback Happiness Begins, sold-out world tours, and a subsequent GRAMMY® Award nomination. He has also established himself as a dynamic solo artist with a penchant for breaking boundaries. His 2014 self-titled album yielded the triple-platinum “Jealous,” double-platinum “Chains,” and gold-certified “Levels.” Its 2016 follow-up Last Year Was Complicated spawned the anthem “Close” [feat. Tove Lo] and brought his streams into the billions. That same year, he was also honored with the prestigious Hal David Starlight Award by the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Nick was then nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Original Song for his co-written song “Home” from the 2017 animated film Ferdinand. Nick has also distinguished himself in the world of film and television. Most recently, he starred in The Good Half, delivering a knockout performance in his first leading role, and wrapped production for an upcoming film titled Power Ballad, where he is set to star alongside actor Paul Rudd. Nick will also soon star in the upcoming filmed production of the beloved Broadway musical Jersey Boys. Along the way, he has captivated audiences as a re-occurring judge on NBC’s The Voice and in big screen favorites such as Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Ugly Dolls, Midway, Jumanji: The Next Level, Chaos Walking, and most recently A Very Jonas Christmas Movie. An active philanthropist, Nick is also the co-founder of Beyond Type 1, a nonprofit organization changing what it means to live with diabetes. Through platforms, programs, resources and grants, Beyond Type 1 is uniting the global diabetes community and providing solutions to improve lives today. 2025 marked a special year for Jonas Brothers as they celebrated their 20th anniversary as a band. They hosted a milestone JONASCON fan event at New Jersey’s American Dream, where they celebrated 20 years of legacy, memories, and the Jonas Brothers fan community with over 75,000 fans from all over the world in attendance. JONASCON kicked off what became an unforgettable year for the Jonas Brothers, including their latest album, Greetings from Your Hometown, and their highly anticipated “JONAS20: Greetings From Your Hometown” Tour. Rounding out the year, the brothers were honored with a hand and footprint ceremony at TCL Chinese Theatre and were formally inducted into the New Jersey Hall of Fame. They also starred in the holiday film A Very Jonas Christmas Movie on Disney+. In May 2026, the brothers announced their new podcast “Hey Jonas!” where they serve as co-hosts with episodes dropping weekly. Most recently, Jonas Brothers were inducted as Disney Legends, one of The Walt Disney Company's highest honors, recognizing their lasting impact on music, film, and television across generations of fans and are currently on “The Burning Up Tour All Over Again.”
