Trendspotting: Kenzo Fall 2013

Saw this on Style.com and it caught my eye. Opening Ceremony purveyors, Humberto Leon and Carol Lim are the brainchildren behind Kenzo's reinvention as a fashion brand with ready to wear collections for men and women.

There was actually a pair of color blocked pants they did this past fall season that I was remiss to not get. Rarely do I go to the trouble of asking a sales person to call every corner of the country to see if they still had these pants in my size, but it couldn't be traced. Guess I'll have to wait for the Zara knock-offs just like everyone else.

But it's that kind of consumer obsession that has made Opening Ceremony the IT store in the country. They don't need to put a finger on the pulse of what's in or what's out because they are the pulse.

And this look had my heart beating for Kenzo again.

They were inspired by looking out of an airplane window which has created this red-eye cloud print. It's been paired with slim cut pants and shoes to match the blood red sky; note that the shoes zip down the front...which is a trend I've seen this past fall too. It's probably for easy take off to get you through airport security faster.

YES
If you want to soar along with Humberto and Carol aboard flight 2013 Kenzo

NO
If you want to stay grounded because you have a fear of heights/flying or anything with a print

MAYBE
You prefer to use your travel points to fly Delta. You just won't look as cool
