Nigo debuted as the French luxury fashion house's artistic director in September 2021 and has definitely brought his own flair of street and youth into the label's collection. Nigo has spoken a distinct language in the fashion world by taking his design inspiration from the French luxury fashion house's late founder, Kenzo Takada.

Nigo has tried to amalgamate the idea of traditional Japanese with western traditions and has found a middle-way realistic approach to style his clothes.

The newly launched collection is further a testiment to his methods. Nigo has tagged the newly launched FW22 Week 5 drop under the French luxury label's University collection. The label described their collection in an official Instagram post,

"KENZO UNIVERSITY Collection [tiger emoji] As seen on the runway, @nigo’s début Fall-Winter 2022 collection introduces the Varsity Tiger edit, explore the synthesis between Japenese and Western flairs."
