Drawing by Nigo
The New World of KENZO
This year, Nigo was appointed as artistic director of KENZO. The memorable 1st collection features historical graphics of poppies, which are key to the archive, and sketches drawn by Takada, in honor of the founder Kenzo Takada, to express the new "KENZO" in Nigo's unique contemporary creation. KEIJU saw this collection when he visited Shibuya PARCO’s KENZO during the shooting. "I was attracted to Nigo's collection. Cool."




A spirit that resonates
Projection on Aiko Nic poppies
The fusion of cultures such as "Orient and the West" and "Fashion and Music" and the philosophy of wardrobes that are close to lifestyles are the spirits of both Nigo and Kenzo Takada resonate. On this day, the denim jacket and denim pants worn by KEIJU are embroidered with vivid red poppies, a motif that has spun the history of KENZO, and the sophisticated retro look is impressive.




With special beings
Identity
The new "KENZO" created by Mr. Nigo, who regards individual and individual style as the best. Let's hide in the personal part of Keiju. I look back on my childhood that the presence of my parents has had a significant impact on me. "I was often scolded because I was a shy person. I think that it affects music, including what was said at the time, because my parents faced me. Is it an unforgettable memory?…Everything is an unforgettable memory. Everything will stimulate you.”



Important within yourself
Small my rule
Recently, on my music label, it seems that dialogue with the older staff about two times has also led to motivation, saying, "People who have never met before face themselves and their work, so there is an impact from that point on that. I feel like I have to do it on the way home from MTG. "Enjoying" is a small rule within me, and I think it's important to study here, try to have fun and come into contact with everything," he said. “I want to do a one-man tour from now on. I also want to work with someone and create a work together. Production always has a desire to express something new to me.”
