Kenzo returns to one of its most personal addresses for its fall-winter 2026 campaign. Under artistic director Nigo, the house steps inside the former Paris residence of founder Kenzo Takada. The home becomes the setting for a collection rooted in memory and everyday life.
Kenzo Fall/Winter 2026 Campaign
Photographed and directed by Laura Jane Coulson, the campaign stars Nico Hiraga and Lukita Maxwell. They drift between domestic moments and the garden beyond, presenting the clothes with an easy familiarity.
The location reinforces the connection between the house’s past and Nigo’s ongoing vision, where French and Japanese influences continue to meet. The collection reflects that dialogue through a wardrobe shaped by prep, tailoring, and reworked house signatures.
Oversized checked coats reference Ivy League dressing. Shirts, patterned ties, and relaxed suiting introduce Nigo’s American influences. A black bomber embroidered with oversized florals revisits one of Kenzo’s enduring motifs.
Generous denim softens tailored jackets for a more casual attitude. The kimono also returns as a point of reference, translated into outerwear and tailoring. Together, the campaign suggests that Kenzo’s history is something to live with, not simply look back on.
Kenzo’s pre-spring 2027 collection picks up the same thread, pairing varsity jackets and chore coats with Japanese garden motifs.
