About the brand
Kenzo is a luxury fashion brand founded in 1970 by Japanese designer Kenzo Takada in Paris. After moving from Japan to the French capital in 1964, Takada opened his first boutique "Jungle Jap" in Galerie Vivienne, later renamed simply Kenzo. The brand revolutionized fashion by blending Japanese aesthetics with European design sensibilities, creating a unique "ethno-chic" movement that celebrated cultural diversity. Known for its vibrant colors, bold patterns, and innovative use of cotton in high fashion, Kenzo distinguished itself with kimono-inspired cuts, floral prints, and the iconic tiger motif. The brand expanded beyond women's clothing to include menswear, fragrances, and accessories. Acquired by LVMH in 1993, Kenzo continues to embody its founder's vision of borderless fashion that fuses various cultural influences into distinctive, avant-garde designs that have been worn by celebrities and fashion icons worldwide.
