Kenzo Takada has died at the age of 81, due to complications from Covid-19. The Japanese fashion designer – founder of the eponymous label Kenzo – was famed for bringing unrestricted shapes, vibrant colour and creative energy to French fashion in the 1970s, and liberating sartorial society from the conservatism of the Haute Couture salon.
