KENZO presents an official look at its new Year of the Dragon collection just in time for the Lunar New Year to roll in around the corner. The festive capsule is comprised of 60 pieces in total across the menswear, womenswear, and even kidswear line.
It is comprised of a wide range of silhouettes ready for anyone in the family including graphic tees, trousers, hoodies, and outerwear. The color palette is rooted in bright tones of red, golden yellow, and black to stay aligned with the overarching theme. It is also accented with hues of white, pink, and green for some tonal contrast across the collection. The capsule is led by the Embroidered Bomber Jacket which comes in cherry red and black.
