They design their clothes with a universal and comprehensive vision, without any rules. The designers like to catch a wider audience and even people that have never heard of KENZO before. Every piece of the collection has a meaning that is relevant and important. The collaboration with H&M gave them the opportunity to think about new combinations and try them out. The collection is a tribute to the past, the present and the future. A typical characteristic of the KENZO clothes is that you can wear them inside out, which is also the case in the KENZO x H&M collection. There is a balance between the street style and daring original pieces, including dresses with ribbons, fake fur jackets in neon colors and so on. Just like the Balmain collection, prices for KENZO x H&M aren’t that high.
