13/09/07
Kim Jones,who enjoys cult status for his refined casual clothing, first showed in London in 2003 after graduating with MA Menswear from Central St Martins. He then went on to show in Paris and last season New York.
He has worked with leading industry creators such as photographer Alasdair McLellan and Creative Director of Dazed & Confused Nicola Formichetti (Jones is Contributing Editor to the title too).
He also designed a diffusion line with Umbro which took his design to a wider audience while getting Umbro to a more fashion-forward customer base.
KJ by Kim Jones launched exclusively at the S/S08 MAN stage, punctuated by exclusive pieces from the Kim Jones mainline collection too.
“Kim Jones ... No one does street chic like Kim Jones! A very talented designer whose urban street fashion is always a benchmark in menswear, injecting the right amount of colour and interesting silhouettes that create great excitement with each collection he presents! Strong, innovative and always inspiring!” Jefferson Hack, Editor-In-Chief, Another/Another Man
