Kenzo Takada founded Kenzo in 1970. Kenzo Takada - the label's creator and inventor of new techniques such as cut knit - was the first to introduce the concept of volume and freedom of movement into clothing.

In 1993, Kenzo House became a part of the luxury-goods empire, LVMH (Louis Vuitton Möet Hennessey). Before leaving the House in 1999, he has inspired the creation teams with these amazing associations of colours, materials and prints that convey Kenzo's values: freedom, cheerfulness and generosity.

Exploring the world's richly diverse cultures, Kenzo creates exotic and fun clothes, tuning ethnic elements to utterly modern. The guiding motifs of Kenzo designs are color and flowers, the kimono and simple shapes, tradition and folklore. His works combined incompatible things: men's clothing was a hybrid of Western tailoring and Eastern sarongs, while women's wear combined Japanese cuts with Slavic embroidery.
