As seen on the runway: KEEN x Tess van Zalinge

For her 10-year anniversary show in Utrecht, Dutch designer Tess van Zalinge celebrated a decade of pushing the boundaries between couture and conceptual design. Known for her sculptural silhouettes and innovative craftsmanship, the anniversary collection explored freedom, movement and the beauty of breaking away from expectations.

One runway. Two cords. Endless creativity.

Walking alongside every look was KEEN’s iconic UNEEK. Crafted from just two cords and a sole, the UNEEK silhouette has challenged traditional footwear design. Its unconventional construction mirrors the same creative mindset that defines Tess van Zalinge’s work: rethinking familiar forms, embracing innovation and proving that less can truly create more. The result was a natural partnership where fashion and function moved effortlessly together, demonstrating that technical craftsmanship and artistic expression are far from opposites.
