[KENZO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-dragon-collection-2) introduces the Drop 2 series to join its ongoing Fall/Winter 2022 seasonal designs. It continues to build upon the brand's design notes that also take the brand's Parisian roots into consideration. It also has a strong sense of its own Japanese heritage for a perfect juxtaposing theme at the base of the looks.

To honor its Japanese culture, there is a range of multi-tonal Fujimara prints along with the Kenzo Takada sketch prints that showcase a reverence for the label as well as Takada's handwriting as a personal touch. The capsule features silhouettes including suits, overcoats, buttoned tops, pants with pleated details, and much more that are vibrantly designed. In addition to the colorful items, there is a notable light-washed denim cord set with white cartoon-like flowers.
