Humberto Leon and Carol Lim, famously pally with the highest stratosphere of cool kids, could have picked any member of their circle, from Spike Jonze to Chloë Sevigny, to inspire their new Kenzo collection.
Instead, they chose Steve Jobs.
The patron saint of the mock turtleneck isn't mood-board material for most designers. But the Opening Ceremony pair's nose for the next has proven all but infallible in the past. For their Paris men's debut, it didn't disappoint.
"I was really inspired by Jobs," Leon explained. "Carol and I are children of the nineties, and we really feel that moment when the Internet became big is a big starting point for us, when young people started immediately making money, and companies around the world were starting to address the needs of this new kind of business. A lot of people who weren't part of the Internet boom at the beginning don't understand the power of the youth. When we look at the Kenzo man, he's of that generation."
Jobs wasn't, strictly speaking, an Internet boom-rider, and he was definitely not of the nineties generation. But the late Apple founder found a way to harness and brand the energy of youth and cool in ways that his compatriots didn't see.
That's exactly what Leon and Lim have made their signature at Opening Ceremony.
