DIOR: SPRING 2024 TAILORING COLLECTION

The quintessence of the art of couture, tailoring has been central to the virtuoso skills of the ateliers since the house was founded.

Celebrating this unique heritage, Kim Jones deconstructs its formal aesthetic in an exclusive capsule, bringing together iconic Dior fundamentals with an irresistibly contemporary creative vision. Paired in subtle mix and match combinations, the jackets and pants – available in emblematic shades ranging from gray to light blue, black and beige – are designed to accompany men in their daily lives. Casual and sophisticated, cargos are revisited, while chinos and Bermudas are punctuated with tone-on-tone "Dior" patches. Powerful yet classic, these looks are in constant evolution: half-kilts and vests reappear, and structure becomes decoration, with new inspirations on the "CD" buckle. Redefining the principal lines of the tailoring silhouette, the double-breasted jacket – a staple of the menswear– stands out for its soft, malleable curves. Reflecting the ultimate attention to detail, it is embellished with CD icon pins, buttons borrowed from the Bar suit, and the delicately embroidered, intertwined initials of Monsieur Dior.
