LAD/ Debuts at Paris Fashion Week Men’s SS27 with KIN LA BELLE
LAD/ made a confident entrance onto the Paris Fashion Week menswear calendar with its Spring/Summer 2027 presentation, KIN LA BELLE, introducing an elevated vision of tailoring shaped by cultural exchange and global craftsmanship. Founded by Ladislas Mande, the emerging label continues to redefine contemporary luxury by blending refined sartorial techniques with narratives rooted in identity, movement, and heritage.
Titled “From Kinshasa to the World,” the collection reflects the brand’s international approach to design. Produced through collaborations across Italy, Japan, Turkey, and the United States, the SS27 offering balances meticulous craftsmanship with a modern silhouette, creating garments that bridge European tailoring traditions and contemporary African expression. Rather than treating tailoring as a purely technical exercise, LAD/ positions it as a language through which culture and personal identity can be communicated.
Presented during Paris Fashion Week Men’s, KIN LA BELLE marked an important milestone in the evolution of the house. The collection reinforced the brand’s commitment to precision, craftsmanship, and storytelling while attracting the attention of buyers, editors, and members of the international fashion community. As LAD/ continues to expand its global presence, its Paris debut establishes a strong foundation for the label’s next chapter, positioning it as a rising voice in the new generation of luxury menswear.
