Backstage at Opening Ceremony with Tom Pecheux.

Designers of Kenzo and their second 'baby' brand Humberto Leon and Carol Lim showed their debut collection for Opening Ceremony at New York Fashion Week in front of numerous celebrity friends.

 Designers were inspired by combination of influences of busy suburban Southern California with it's street races (i.e. seat belts reference) and Carol Lim's homage to her Korean background featuring traces of traditional Korean garments like below cross strap tops and wrapped jackets.

Collection was rich with carefully combined street wear and high end pieces like tank dresses, cargo shorts and over-sized t-shirts and tailored almost unitards ;) Fun, young, bright and wearable, relaxed story.  I selected below a number of pieces I would certainly wear!
