If you’re serious about your fashion, KENZO is definitely a brand that you’ll be only too aware of we’re sure and their latest capsule release – the Varsity Jungle Collection – showcases exactly why this Parisian brand is held in such high regard in fashion circles. Directly inspired by the Ivy League spirit that infuses the brand’s collections, Artistic Director Nigo has designed KENZO Varsity Jungle capsule, a playful line of genderless T-shirts, sweatshirts and cardigans for Spring 2023 that reflect both the graphic codes of the house and the passion for nature which was such a hallmark of founder Kenzo Takada.
We’re particularly partial to animal-inspired apparel here at The Coolector so you won’t be at all surprised to hear there are plenty of pieces calling our name in the Varsity Jungle Collection from KENZO and you can check out a few of our favourite pieces from this top-class release below:
TIGER T-SHIRT
The iconic Tiger, the emblem of KENZO, enhances this short-sleeved ‘Varsity Jungle’ T-shirt in the style of an American university mascot and we’re loving it here at The Coolector. This effortlessly cool tee will look great with jeans or Bermuda shorts this summer thanks to its classic cut.
ELEPHANT T-SHIRT
This epic T-shirt boasts Kenzo Takada’s favourite animal, the elephant, on the chest. The Elephant design takes its inspiration from the vintage style logos of American University sports teams. What’s not to like?
