Maison Kitsuné was created in Paris in 2002 by Gildas Loaëc, a music producer, and Masaya Kuroki, a budding architect. In Japan, Loaëc and Kuroki developed the idea for Maison Kitsuné – a one-of-a-kind brand that fuses their love for French and Japanese styles, and two stylistically intertwined interests, music and fashion.
