Joining her are Alexandra Shipp and Kodi Smit-McPhee, adding their own star power to the mix. The film will also feature Kenzo’s latest Fall/Winter 2018 collection, as well as pieces from the brand’s La Collection Memento No. 3.
In addition to the impressive lineup of actors, “The Everything” will also see the involvement of acclaimed director Spike Jonze, known for his previous work with Kenzo. The project is shrouded in mystery, with only a few details released by the brand. However, fans can expect a film that is as innovative and avant-garde as Kenzo’s distinctive style, staying true to the brand’s ethos of creativity and originality.
Scheduled to premiere on September 7 at New York Fashion Week, “The Everything” has already generated significant buzz within the fashion and film industries.
