The exciting and unique first look of KENZO x H&M has been unveiled. The printed pieces scream originality with distinctive cuts and color.
The pieces not only make a statement with their overall style, but also from the inspirational and industrious people chosen to model the clothing. The artists, young creatives, and activists are all ambassadors for KENZO x H&M.
The first look features Amy Sall, a student and activist based in New York, who is also the founder of SUNU: Journal of African Affairs, Critical Thought + Aesthetics. Also modeling the collection is Juliana Huxtable, a 28-year-old known for being an artist, poet and DJ is also based in New York.
Joining them to model the first look are Isamaya Ffrench and Oko Ebombo, Ismaya is a make-up artist based in London and part of the London-based collective, Theo Adams Company, who create unique large-scale theatrical productions, film, events, photography and sound work. Oko Ebombo is a musician and performance artist based in Paris, and is most well known as the front man of the band 19.
The pieces include funky tiger print jersey roll neck tops and matching high-waist leggings, paired with logo-bearing long black leather gloves, to create an overall look that you probably would not see anywhere else.
