Launched in 2016, Opening Ceremony x Esprit was a high-profile collaborative project that revived the iconic Californian brand’s 1980s and 1990s aesthetic for a new generation. Initiated by Opening Ceremony founders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon—who grew up idolizing Esprit’s democratic approach to fashion—the partnership reimagined the brand’s archival staples with modern cuts and a distinct streetwear sensibility. The collections were characterized by their heavy use of the classic stencil logo, bold primary colors, and “funhouse” prints that channeled the optimism and energy of Esprit’s heyday.
