A double-breasted blazer from Kenzo Paris in pure wool, woven in a soft shadow check of burgundy and slate blue and fastened with six amber-toned buttons. Size 2 (M), made in Japan, in clean pre-owned condition.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. This blazer carries the KENZO PARIS label and a Made in Japan composition tag, and it shows that meeting in tailoring: peak lapels, a structured shoulder, flap pockets at the hip and a lining of deep chocolate brown.
The cloth is the point. Blocks of burgundy and slate blue overlap in a blurred, almost watercolour check that reads as a quiet dark plaid from across a room and glows with colour up close. The body is 100% wool, the lining is cupra, and the sleeves are lined in rayon. Each cuff carries three small buttons that echo the larger ones down the front, and the whole jacket sits with the easy authority of good tailoring from a more generous decade.
Measured flat: shoulder 47 cm (18.5 in), chest width 54 cm (21.3 in), length 75 cm (29.5 in), sleeve length 62 cm (24.4 in). Every measurement is taken by hand with the piece laid flat, so please allow a gentle margin of about 1 to 3 cm (0.5 to 1 in).
