Qixi gets a heart

Kenzo unveils the Kenzo Jungle Heart Collection created by artistic director Nigo, celebrating Chinese Valentine’s Day, which is every 10 August. Inspired by Kenzo Takada’s Jungle fashion, the collection highlights the special expression of love on 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 by brand archives.
