Kitsuné is a French fashion label and electronic music record label created in 2002 by Gildas Loaëc, Masaya Kuroki and the London-based company Åbäke. In Japanese, "kitsune" (きつね, 狐) means fox.
Background
Kitsuné was founded in 2002 in Paris by Gildas Loaëc, Masaya Kuroki and the London-based design company Åbäke, consisting of Patrick Lacey, Benjamin Reichen, Kajsa Ståhl and Maki Suzuki.[1][2][3][4] Loaëc and Kuroki, who both like fashion and music, got the idea to found a company involved in both areas during a trip to Japan, where many people like both fashion and music, and are not afraid to combine them.[2] Before co-founding the company Loaëc worked with Daft Punk and also with Thomas Bangalter's record label Roulé.[3][5][6]
The Name
The name Kitsuné comes from the Japanese word "kitsune" (きつね, 狐) meaning fox. The kitsune is said to have the power to change its appearance and its face. The many faces and appearances of the kitsune represent the different parts and directions of Kitsuné.[2][7]
