When the past collides with the present in a playful background of multiple interventions, there is certainly to born a speechless piece of art. It was the case of the 2018 spring-summer fashion show of Kenzo. The past references came from one of the muses of Kenzo Takada – Sayoko Yamaguchi – while from the modern times, Ryuichi Sakamoto – a contemporary musician – was an inspiration to create styles full of enlightenment. Like that, an Asian atmosphere was assembled and translated into colour-saturated shades contrasting with muted colours, progressive lines and a flair of irreverence. In that way, the designers – Carol Lim & Humberto Leon – made flourish the bold high-waist and belted pants bringing to the show the ’50s baseball trousers motifs, and so, giving to men a strong power, character and a new individuality, allowing us to wear novel shapes & colours. This was graphically complemented with statements as “Love will make a better you” and prints. As everything great comes in doubles, this show presented as well the women’s collection. In the end, if the show was about joy and fun, all the clothes spoke ‘yourself’!

I hope you liked the concept & everything about this fashion show just as I did when I watched it in first hand in Paris! I will never forget! Well, INSPIRED?! I AM!

Kenzo SS18 | Um verão Alegre de Cores

Quando o passado colide com o presente em um fundo lúdico de múltiplas intervenções,
há - certamente - uma obra de arte que nasce. Foi o caso do desfile de primavera-verão de 2018 de Kenzo. 
As referências do passado vieram de uma das musas de Kenzo Takada - Sayoko Yamaguchi - enquanto que
a referência do presente veste a pele de um músico contemporâneo - Ryuichi Sakamoto. 
Assim, uma atmosfera asiática foi montada e traduzida em tons saturados de cor, contrastando com outras mais suaves,
formando linhas progressivas e nascendo uma personalidade irreverente em cada look construido.
Dessa forma, os estilistas - Carol Lim & Humberto Leon - fizeram florescer as ousadas calças de cintura alta, 
trazendo ao show os 'motifs' de calças de beisebol dos anos 50, dando aos homens um forte poder, caráter e uma 
nova individualidade, permitindo-nos usar novas formas e cores. Isto foi graficamente complementado com 
declarações como "O amor fará você melhor". 
Como tudo que é de bom vem em duplicado, este show apresentou também a coleção feminina. 
A final de contas, se o show foi sobre alegria e diversão, todas as roupas espelhavam "você mesmo/a"!
