For the venue of his debut runway show as Artistic Director of Kenzo, Nigo chose Galerie Vivienne, a nod to designer and founder Kenzo Takada, who unveiled his first collection in 1970 in the mythic Parisian arcade. His combined men's and women's collection for Fall/Winter 2022 is infused with a "real-to-wear" spirit that blends heritage with contemporary codes.
Under the natural lighting of the glass roof over the Galerie Vivienne, 60 feminine and masculine silhouettes took to the catwalk against the backdrop of a soundtrack featuring an exclusive preview of the designer's upcoming album I Know Nigo, with contributions from Pharrel Williams and Tyler, The Creator, among others. The artists joined other guests for Nigo's first show, warmly wrapped in Kenzo logo blankets, to witness the birth of a new style marked by multiple cultures, at the same time authentic and avant-garde. Nigo fused American influences and Japanese culture to create a harmonious dialogue. Varsity jackets with Ivy League patches and aviation jackets are joined by traditional Japanese garments like the samue worn by potters - a craft that Nigo practices - or hanten, a traditional piece revisited in double-faced wool for coats, as well as cropped jackets lined with wool flannel.
