I wouldn’t be surprised if design duo Carol Lim and Humberto Leon created the entire collection while holed away in an exotic seaside locale. Beyond the hue, the collection featured clear nods to a [coastal aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanamica-springsummer-2026) from wave-shaped skirts to a “No Fish… No Nothing” tee shirt. As for shapes, the models wore straight-fitted mini skirts, sleeveless mini dresses, boxy jackets and crop tops for a very streamlined look. The models were accessorized with cord necklaces, high-heeled sandals, and matching printed bags. Overall, this collection screamed with stimulating colors and a [luxurious resort vibe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-hour-getaway-collection). The Kenzo Spring/Summer 2014 collection is perfect vacation wear; especially if you’re jet setting to an oceanfront villa. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxuryfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Electrifying Blues in Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to incorporate bold and vibrant blues into their collections, creating a visually striking and attention-grabbing aesthetic. - **Coastal-inspired Fashion:** Potential for designers to infuse coastal elements into their collections, such as wave-shaped skirts and beach-inspired prints, to create a fresh and summery look. - **Luxurious Resort Vibes:** Opportunity for brands to create resort wear collections that exude luxury and evoke a sense of relaxation and vacation, catering to the jet-setters and travelers. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can leverage these trends to revamp their collections and appeal to consumers seeking unique and stand-out designs. - **Jewelry:** Jewelry brands can create cord necklaces that complement the coastal aesthetic and offer a stylish accessory for the electrifying blues trend. - **Travel and Hospitality:** Hotels and vacation resorts can incorporate the luxurious resort vibes from the Kenzo collection in their interior designs and overall experience to attract high-end clientele looking for a relaxing getaway. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Beach-Inspired Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-kind-of-guise-3.md) - [Pixelated Runway Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixelated.md) - [Island-Inspired Summer Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sel-de-mer.md) - [Coastal Utility Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanamica-springsummer-2026.md) - [Summery Bikini Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-spring-2024.md) - [Print-Focused Swim Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fioretta.md) - [Heartwarming Life-Tech Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanamica-3.md) - [Bright Color-Based Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-1.md) - [Bold Playful Summer Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duvin-design-co.md)
