Giving back is part of the holiday spirit, which is something Kenneth Cole has perfected. This season, he’s also part of The CFDA Loves The Holidays shop at the new Fred Segal on Sunset Boulevard. We asked Kenneth what he loved about our collaboration with the LA retail legend and his favorite things about the holidays.

Why did you agree to participate in the CFDA Loves the Holidays shop?

Fred Segal and CFDA are both iconic names in the fashion industry. Fred Segal has been a storied gathering place for artists, designers, and tastemakers for decades, and it is an honor to be part of the curated list of brands that the CFDA put together for the holiday shop.

What do you love about the holiday season the most?

Spending time with family and friends.

What CFDA Loves the Holidays item from one of the other designers will be on your wish-list this season?

With such a great assortment, it’s too hard to select one item. The assortment is my wish-list.
