KENZO Jungle Hearts Celebrates Chinese Valentine's Day
KENZO unveils the KENZO JUNGLE HEART Collection created by Artistic Director Nigo, celebrating Chinese Valentine’s Day. Inspired by the Kenzo Takada’s «JUNGLE» fashion, the collection highlights the special expression of love in this Chinese Valentine’s Day.
Focus on the brand codes, Nigo draws on his sensibility of fauna as signifiers of symbols and feelings, combining the tiger, one of the most iconic animals linked to Kenzo Paris DNA, and elephant, Kenzo Takada’s favorite animal, into a huge heart shape, which represents the power of Love. While the ‘Kenzo Paris’ also called ‘Kenzo archive signature’ is directly inspired from brand archives.

ABOUT KENZO
To prepare for the future, we look to the past. As a new reality manifests at KENZO, Artistic Director Nigo reconnects with the values entrenched in the early beginnings of the House: designer fashion created for real life, imbued with the playful urbanity of Kenzo Takada’s timeless legacy. A creative exchange, KENZO becomes an evolving dialogue between the pop culture of the founder’s heritage and the street culture beloved by Nigo. Through Nigo’s instinct for contemporary design, a new vision takes shape at KENZO: ‘real-to-wear’, a genuine wardrobe founded in the authentic desires of the post-digital mindset. It is a realistic approach to fashion, which transcends the conventional labels of ‘formal’, ‘casual’, or ‘street’ in favor of the combinations that make up real wardrobes today. A series of encounters take place: the everlasting codes of KENZO are considered through an instant lens, the ‘Jungle’ fashion of its founder is distilled into succinctly covetable items and a new sense of exclusivity heightens the universal appeal key to the House’s history. In the encounter between the founder and the heir, the core of KENZO is amplified: unconventional fashion for the future, rooted in the permanence of its past.
