Discover KENZO‘s Fall Winter 2019.20 advertising campaign featuring Euphoria‘s star Hunter Schafer and models Lindsey Wixson, Kiko Arai, Geron Nord, and Jabali Sandiford captured by fashion photographer David LaChapelle. In charge of styling was Anna Trevelyan, with set design from Arnaud Roth, and casting direction by Noah Shelley for 1979 Services. Beauty is work of hair stylist Laurent Philippon, makeup artist Kabuki, and manicurist Naomi Yasuda.
“At first glance, the unorthodox, densely layered images (and accompanying videos to follow later) echo the important cross-cultural conversations that are imprinted into KENZO’s roots since its foundation. In classic LaChapelle form, there is more to these photos than what meets the eye. One-of-a-kind works of “collage art,” the dichotomous images feature original fashion photography by LaChapelle superimposed over his rarely seen personal archive of vintage travel slides he has sourced for decades from his globetrotting adventures all over the world. It’s a provocative and intergenerational approach to image making that speaks to KENZO’s global sensibilities and conveys a new modern community of people traveling all over the world.“
