Dive into a vibrant color palette with the newly launched KENZO x VERDY ‘COLORS’ collection, now available in boutiques. This exciting collaboration between KENZO and Artistic Director Nigo, alongside Japanese visual artist VERDY, brings a fresh burst of energy and style to this season’s fashion offerings.
A Marriage of East Meets West
This second collaboration between KENZO and VERDY for Spring/Summer 2024 showcases a brilliant fusion of Eastern artistic flair and Western streetwear style. VERDY, a close friend of Nigo, incorporates his signature bold and playful designs into the collection. His work, deeply rooted in youth culture, skateboarding, hip-hop, and manga, perfectly complements Nigo’s vision of a culturally rich fashion dialogue.
What to Expect in the ‘COLORS’ Collection
Menswear Highlights
The menswear line features classic zip-up hoodies and unbrushed molleton sweatshirts in grey and blue, proudly displaying the ‘KENZO PARIS’ or ‘KP’ graphics designed by VERDY. These pieces are paired with matching shorts that sport the logo at the knee. Additionally, jersey T-shirts are available in both oversized and classic fits, rounding out the collection with options in yellow and white.
Womenswear Delights
The women’s collection mirrors the playful spirit of the menswear line with T-shirts in classic and loose fits adorned with the same KENZO logos. The color palette is bright and engaging, with poppy red, lemon yellow, white, and grey. A boxy cropped T-shirt in soft white jersey with yellow lettering and a long grey T-shirt dress bearing white logos highlight the collection’s versatility and youthful charm.
Accessories to Adore
Completing the look, the collection offers essential accessories such as small tote bags in deep-sea blue canvas and baseball caps available in blue with white logos and off-white with yellow logos. The summery color scheme extends to the new iteration of the KENZO-PACE running shoe, which has evolved since its debut and features prominently in the KENZO lineups.
