March 2013 heralds the arrival of the fourth chapter in the fruitful collaboration between Vans and Kenzo.
In January 2012, Kenzo creative directors Humberto Leon and Carol Lim traveled to Thailand to trek through the magnificent Asian jungle. A diversity of animals abound in this unique ecosystem. Between elephants, monkeys, reptiles and tigers, Carol and Humberto found plenty of inspiration for their spring-summer 2013 collection: “The Nebula Panther”.
This fourth Vans x Kenzo capsule collection features six pairs of Vans in vibrant colors. Inspired by the must-have motif of their new collection, the Vans Authentic and Slip-On are available in ochre, blue, green and orange.
To celebrate the release of this Spring/Summer 2013 collection, Vans and Kenzo held an exclusive launch party on Sunday March 3 at Balajo in Paris. The two brands caused quite a stir with one of the most beautiful parties of Paris Fashion Week. A resolutely 90s event, guests were treated to an incredible performance by the legendary New York group Deelite. A host of it girls turned out to celebrate the new collection, including model Karlie Kloss, Jessica Alba, Micky Green and Ebony Bones. All the guests had fun until the end of the night to the funky music of Lady Miss Kier.
From April 1, the fourth Vans x Kenzo collection will be on sale in Kenzo boutiques, on the kenzo.com e-shop and in selected partner stores such as colette, Lane Crawford and IT China.
