KENZO OPENS TWO EPHEMERAL BOUTIQUES IN PARIS AND SEOUL TO UNVEIL ITS COLLABORATION WITH ARTIST VERDY

The famous Kenzo brand joins forces with Japanese artist Verdy for the first time, announcing the launch of its spring-summer 2024 collection for men, women and unisex.

A close friend of Artistic Director NIGO, VERDY is a Japanese graphic artist best known for his iconic labels including Girl's Don't Cry, and artistic director of K-pop group Blackpink.

His style, influenced by skateboarding, hip-hop and manga, offers an authentic fusion of Western and Japanese streetwear, perfectly reflecting the 'East Meets West' vision embodied by NIGO in his designs for KENZO.

To celebrate this collection, which unites East and West, designer Nigo, head of the Japanese house, announces the opening of two temporary boutiques from December 2 to 17 at 66 avenue des Champs Élysées in Paris (8th arrondissement) and from December 16 to 26 at 10 Corso Como in Seoul.
