Blending sailor-inspired motifs with streetwear accents, the Spring/Summer 2023 collection juxtaposes seaside elements against vivid, purple-tinged studio backdrops. Collegiate themes are artfully contrasted with quintessential Parisian charm, creating a unique fusion that defines Kenzo’s contemporary aesthetic.

A key aspect of Nigo’s success at Kenzo is his skillful recontextualization of the brand’s iconic imagery. Naval ensembles featuring navy and off-white camp collar shirts and skirts are embellished with a myriad of Kenzo badges. Each badge, whether displaying the word “Jungle” or referencing vintage branding, symbolizes a sailor’s various accomplishments at sea, as if the garment itself is a testament to Nigo’s achievements with the fashion house.

The collection continues to play with nautical themes, introducing a yellow vest adorned with numerous badges, evoking the image of a life jacket. Streetwear influences emerge in the form of a Kenzo-branded nameplate buckle belt and a badged scarf tucked into a model’s jean pocket. Womenswear, too, receives the maritime treatment, reflecting the versatility and cohesion of the Spring/Summer 2023 collection.
