SPRING/SUMMER 2027 ‘ Little Wooden Dolls ’
An invitation to KIMHĒKIM runway in miniature.
I. THE IDEA
Little wooden dolls take to the runway.
The house’s dream muses, born of a childhood memory.
Dressing Barbie dolls. Making clothes for them. Tracing the first outlines of the house.
For Spring/Summer 2027, the house changes scale and returns to the imagination of childhood.
“Playing with dolls was how I first discovered fashion.
After ten years of KIMHĒKIM, I wanted to create as I did then, simply following my imagination.” — Kiminte
II. THE COLLECTION
A memory, played with again.
Ten years of the house unfold in black and white.
Masculine tailoring softened by draping and pearls.
Military utility given princess-like delicacy through ribbons and gathering.
Drawn from the house’s archive, recognisable forms are rearranged into unexpected couture compositions.
III. THE PRESENTATION
Presented during Paris Fashion Week, the collection comes to life on a miniature runway.
Kiminte dresses and brings each wooden figure to life by hand, revealing the creative gesture behind each silhouette.
An intimate, playful and personal expression of the house’s vision.
IV. CLOSING
For me, creation always begins with the joy of bringing what I imagine to life with my hands.
Ten years later, perhaps that instinct remains the same: to imagine, to make, and to play.
I love KIMHĒKIM. We love KIMHĒKIM.
