Kenzo: Hieroglyphics and faux fur at Pre-Fall 2015

Kenzo went tribal for Pre-Fall 2015 with an autumnal collection packed with wild texture and color. 

Carol Lim and Humberto Leon were playing with the idea of 'individuality as a community' this season at Kenzo. Wider than modern tribalism, the designers also focused on the concept of cult symbolism and spiritual signs.

Plenty of pieces sported warm Inuit-style hoods, with outerwear also including orange wool melton trenches with blanket stitch details. There was also denim, faux fur jacquards, hand-painted and laser-cut shearling as well as graphic knots used as an extra detail to draw the eye. 

The symbolism was there with the monochrome baggy tailoring and jumpsuits covered in hieroglyphics, which contrasted with the flowing solid military green and prisoner orange colors of the silk pieces. For accessories, rain boots and fur clogs were paired with studded bags.
