Olympia Le-Tan designed Maison Kitsuné
At once clever and quirky, the capsule collection represents a creative coming-together among friends, as Le-Tan and Maison Kitsuné cofounders, Gildas Loaëc and Masaya Kuroki, have known each other for years. The range of men’s and women’s looks give sly nods to cult references, re-imagining familiar wardrobe items with eye-catching twists.
Designed to be mixed, matched and layered with selfexpression, key pieces include ruffled blouses, cardigans and pencil skirts; colour-blocked shirts and city trousers; city dresses and workwear jackets; and, of course, a selection of signature hoodies.
The original motifs that animate the collection were conceived by illustrator Joana Avillez, who transplants Maison Kitsuné’s beloved international Fox to New York where he and a lady fox indulge in the city’s destinations and delights. Spot him hailing a taxi; scaling the Empire State Building à la King Kong; or reading in the park. He even appears tucked into a hot dog (just call him ‘Hot Fox’). Indeed, ‘A Fox Day Afternoon’ captures Maison Kitsuné and designer Olympia Le-Tan at their collaborative best: witty, wearable and ready for adventure.
The capsule collection will be available online at maisonkitsune.com, at Maison Kitsuné boutiques as well as selected retailers on February 17th, 2022.
