Kenzo Takada, the first Asian designer to build a major Parisian fashion brand, redefined a historically white space and paved the way for others to follow, recall former Kenzo co-creative directors Carol Lim and Humberto Leon.

Multi-brand stores no longer serve the purpose that they once did. Why do we need them now?

Carol Lim and Humberto Leon take their final bow after 8 years with the LVMH-owned house which they transformed into a high-energy, youth-driven proposition.

Colour and maximalism can be scroll-stopping on social media, but precious few designers can marry bright and shiny with emotional depth.

The centrifugal force that once held New York Fashion Week together is losing its strength but that’s not necessarily a bad thing for the likes of Sies Marjan, Rodarte, Prabal Gurung and Opening Ceremony.

The retailer, long known for its downtown cool, has eliminated most of its in-house label’s design team as part of broader restructuring.

Carol Lim and Humberto Leon remixed Kenzo's history into young, fun, easy clothes for a generation that most-probably missed them the first time around.

With elements of an Asian drama, the collection's grown up but youthful spirit still spelled progress for the brand.
