An inspiring journey !
Born in 1939 in Himeji, Japan, Kenzo Takada developed an attraction for drawing and clothing from a very young age.  But it was at the age of 26 that he landed on French territory.  Initially passing through, the stylist ended up taking up residence in Paris and began, piece by piece to build his empire.  Its eponymous label was officially created in 1976 and was bought in 1993 by the luxury group LVMH.  
KENZO brand is becoming essential, both in the ready-to-wear and perfume sector.  He remains one of most inspiring creative figures in France.
