KIMHĒKIM marked its ninth anniversary with the Spring Summer 2026 collection “I Feel Love,” presented yesterday at the Palais de Tokyo. The show drew from the euphoric rhythms of 1970s disco, reinterpreting its sensual energy through the maison’s signature craftsmanship and playful codes.
SPRING SUMMER 2026
The collection carried forward elements from the Obsession series, pearl details, bow accents, denim reformation, and heart motifs, which resurfaced in silhouettes that felt both clean and fluid. Metallic shimmer and fluid tailoring echoed the vibrancy of disco while grounding it in contemporary clarity. Kimintē Kimhēkim looked to the parallel dynamism of K-pop, connecting it to the free spirit of the 1970s, with the message “Be you, let love shine” running through the show as its guiding statement.
One of the highlights of the presentation was the collaboration with ASICS, revealed on the runway alongside the collection. Sneakers adorned with the maison’s heart symbol injected playful energy into ASICS’ performance legacy, bringing a touch of romance and wit to the brand’s athletic identity.
The audience reflected the celebratory tone of the evening. K-pop star Somi, alongside French singers Green Montana, Wejdene, Owlle, Naomie Green, and Joanna, joined a vibrant guest list. Influencers including Ollie Muhl, Baya Gorbusha, Anna Maligon, Pimprenelle, and Adrien further amplified the atmosphere, which resonated with the optimism embedded in the collection’s title.
With “I Feel Love,” KIMHĒKIM revisits its own design heritage while expanding its dialogue between fashion, music, and cultural rhythm. The anniversary show became both a reflection on the brand’s past and a statement of its evolving place within global fashion today.
