Dior Homme Spring 2008

Yes, Kris Van Assche showed his outstanding debut collection for Dior Homme. Mannequin-like the models stand stiff. Posing to carry out what the director dreamed. An artful show to reestablish a retro 1940s embellished style. These men are absolutely beautifully dressed. Head to toe they have a sense of stature. They have elegance. They have a deliberate existence. A modern superman without the red cape & the flamboyant bright side pieces. Other elements were added to this collection. The 80s double breast suit. A tiny Peter Pan Collar. With sleek calm & asymmetry all tied in gives it a lunatic type feel.
