Available worldwide from April 27, the range is inspired by the movie Edward Scissorhands and boasts Kim’s Fall-Winter 2021 print. On her inspiration, she shared that the scene where Edward went to school, played with paper and made a garland inspired her to make her own. “The print on the bags is cut from paper, which I transformed into a print,” she said.

The bold, two-toned prints she combines on the bags give the range a colourful, bright and optimistic feeling, aligning perfectly with Kipling’s “Live Light” motto.The Belgian brand first caught Kim’s attention in her childhood. “I grew up in the countryside. As a kid, I always looked up to the kids wearing Kipling. I had many Kipling items, but always as an adult. It is really nice to be able to design for Kipling; it’s allowed me to remember my youth.”
