Maison Kitsuné autumn in Taiwan: 9m88, 鶴, the Inaré bag and KURO denim

Maison Kitsuné's 2026 autumn and winter puts the imagination of Parisian travelers between the city and the mountains. In Taiwan, 9m88 and 鶴 performed a series of looks, ranging from knitting, suits, leather to denim, showing a wardrobe that does not only belong to a single occasion; the fox totem also changed into knitted hats, scarves and autumn expressions.

In addition to clothing, the new Inaré Bag is inspired by the origami fox head, and together with Fortune Fox’s new character and KURO collaboration denim, this season’s accessories and craftsmanship clues are formed. If you want to understand the series, you might as well start with "how familiar symbols change" instead of just focusing on the little fox on the chest.

Key facts

  • The Inaré Bag is available in black, ocean blue, and dark taupe leather.
  • Fortune Fox was designed by Kajsa Stahl, combining the imagery of a fox and a fortune cookie.
  • The KURO collaboration capsule collection is produced in Japan and includes denim and other daily items.

9m88 and 鶴: where city and outdoor styling meet, how the city and the outdoors meet

The Taiwanese project brings together more formal silhouettes and relaxed pieces through different materials and proportions. Knitwear, loose suits, leather jackets and dark denim don’t have to be copied as a whole, but they can also be broken down into one or two key points in the original wardrobe.

For example, pair a weighty knitted piece with a simple lower body, or use leather and indigo denim to create a material contrast. The key point is to first look at the proportions of the whole body and the usage situation. The traveler narrative of the series does not mean that every item has outdoor functions, and the waterproof or warmth level cannot be inferred solely from the shape.

Inaré and Fortune Fox give fox a new look

The Inaré Bag uses a folding structure to form a three-dimensional outline close to a fox's head. Black, ocean blue and dark taupe provide different low-key color options. Rather than directly enlarging the character image, this model hides the brand symbol in the bag structure and leather surface details.

Fortune Fox designed by Kajsa Stahl connects foxes and fortune cookies, which is a more graphically interesting direction. When matching, you can first decide which one of the bag shape, pendant or clothing pattern you want to be the focus, to avoid all the fox elements appearing at the same time and losing the hierarchy.

KURO denim, look at the production rather than just the co-branded label

The collaborative capsule collection combines Parisian lifestyle aesthetics with Japanese denim production. Items include selvedge denim pants, shirt jackets, Oxford shirts, hoodies and T-shirts. The patchwork pieces use dark and light indigo fabrics and hand-reinforced details to bring traces of repair, time and wear into the design.

In Taiwan, please pay attention to BELLAVITA, SOGO and designated counters in Taichung and Kaohsiung. The availability of individual series, colors and sizes needs to be confirmed separately. This article does not list the unverified price of Inaré in Taiwan, nor does it guarantee that every store will have complete KURO capsules. After choosing a single product, it will be more practical to ask about the size, fabric and care first.
