Artistic Director Kim Jones skillfully united past and present, extravagance and restraint, in a remarkable exploration of men’s ready-to-wear. Drawing inspiration from Christian Dior’s Ligne H, originally crafted for the Autumn-Winter 1954-1955 season, Jones reinterpreted classic couture elements with a contemporary twist, highlighting the maison’s timeless codes while pushing the boundaries of sartorial innovation.

The collection juxtaposes minimalist, architectural runway settings with silhouettes that are both dramatic and precise. Against the stark monochrome backdrop, models walked with choreographed elegance, showcasing designs that redefine men’s couture by blending structure and fluidity. Satin blindfolds worn by some models added an air of mystery, evoking themes of concealment and transformation, while emphasizing the theatricality of the collection.

Central to the collection is a playful approach to volume, moving gracefully from fitted silhouettes to dramatic, flared shapes. Oversized opera coats paired with sleek trousers create a striking play of proportion, offering a modern reinterpretation of classic couture. The predominantly black and white palette, accented with soft pastels like blush pink, balances stark minimalism with moments of softness and warmth.

This harmonious interplay creates depth and dimension, drawing inspiration from the art of chiaroscuro to showcase an intricate balance of artistry and precision.
