First dreaming of creating his own unique works while watching his two sisters&#8217; sewing classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kenzo also dreamed of Paris, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/2019\/10\/01\/france-the-fashion-capital-of-the-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"the capital of fashion (opens in a new tab)\">the capital of fashion<\/a>, and an eternal symbol of elegance and luxury. And as fate would have it, in 1965 Kenzo landed in Marseille, then quickly discovered Paris. He only planned to stay for six months. But he never left, thus calling the city home for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The\u00a0Kenzo\u00a0Style<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 1970 Kenzo began his remarkable career with the founding of French luxury fashion house KENZO. After rising the brand to luxury status, Kenzo sold it to LVMH in 1993 and left the company in 1999.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Kenzo-1983-Photo-Mike-McKeown-Daily-Express-Hulton-Archive-Getty-Images.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Kenzo-1983-Photo-Mike-McKeown-Daily-Express-Hulton-Archive-Getty-Images-673x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A female fashion model wearing a Kenzo outfit, UK, 21st October 1983.

He collaborated with many firms across different industries. All the while celebrating exquisite fashion, Art de Vivre, and infusing his Asian roots and ardent love of life and beauty into his creations. Incredible colors, animals, florals, and geometric patterns became his signature style. A style that will most certainly live on in fashion, but also in interiors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/guilty-pleasures\/upholstery\/merveille-dining-chair.php?utm_source=LH_Blog_article&amp;utm_medium=banner&amp;utm_campaign=Banner_Article&amp;utm_content=merveille_dining_chair\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/ext-campaign\/article\/kk-merveille-dining-chair-750.jpg\" alt=\"merveille dining chair by koket with feather upholstery\" width=\"710\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Into the World of Interiors\u00a0with\u00a0K-3<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In January 2020 Kenzo began a new adventure with the launch of <a href=\"https:\/\/k-3.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"K-3 (opens in a new tab)\">K-3<\/a>, a luxury home, and lifestyle brand.

I had the chance to work alongside him for many years, always in awe, admiring his curiosity and his open-mindedness. He seemed quiet and shy at first, but he was full of humour, he was generous and always knew how to look after the people close to his heart.
