After numerous of collaborations with artists and writers, Kim Jones approached his 75th anniversary homage to the house as a one-man show and here are our favourite looks:

Dior Men at its best: Fall 2020-2021 at Paris Fashion Week

Dior Men Fall 2020-21 show was definetely one of our favourites.

Elegant silhouettes, tailoring, and innovative styling proposals have been combined to create Kim Jones’ latest vision for the Dior Man. Berets, zips, long gloves and safety pins were a nod to 1980s punk era.

The collection was a tribute to British stylist and punk iconoclast Judy Blame.

Louis Vuitton at Paris Fashion Week: The Fall 2020 Menswear Collection

What Virgil Abloh decided to serve up were his thoughts on male dress codes..

. “Something you haven’t seen from me before: the suit,” he said. “But with menswear, it can be like an automated track, so there are different breakdowns as the show progresses.”

…and here it is: New Era for Louis Vuitton Men with the tailoring trend leading the runway:



Givenchy Fall Winter 2020-21 at Paris Fashion Week

The House of Givenchy has unveiled its Fall 2020-21 collection during Paris Fashion Week Men’s.

Contemporary tailoring, wide shoulders and western styling elements have been combined for its new winter collection; another tribute to the ‘tailoring era’ which is already here.

JW Anderson FW2020 menswear show at Paris Fashion Week

Jonathan Anderson is adept at bringing almost-forgotten art to the ambience of his shows—both for his own label and at Loewe.

There were the long, narrow shifts in paisley print carried over from his women’s collections, pleated peplum tops over shorts, skinny knits, and hefty padded coats. With that sure hand he has for eye-catching Instagrammable branding, he accessorized with heavy gilt chains swathed as belts, blown up as shoe-jewelry, and minimized as sewn-on half-necklaces. The JW Anderson anchor-like logo that he invented as a 23-year-old was stenciled into a felted tote bag and worked into a patchwork sweater. vogue.com

Dior Men: The Pre Fall 2020 show

Kim Jones has remade Dior Men from top to bottom in the 18 months since his debut—with a global team, with artist collaborations, and with a Saddle Bag for dudes, to say nothing of the pageantry he’s brought to the house’s pantsuits.

But the most Jonesian development of all is the synthesis of high and low, couture and street. So integral is this intermingling to his Dior Men project that Jones rejects distinctions between the categories as old-fashioned and out of touch. “Today, people buy what’s the best,” he said in a pre-show interview, the implication being that Dior Men is deserving of the superlative.

Celine Men AW19 at Paris Fashion Week

n his debut show for Celine – now sans accent – in September, Hedi Slimane made it more than clear what his intentions are for the house. If anyone thought that some of the reactions to that show would have an effect on his vision, his first men’s show for Celine spelled out a big fat – or indeed very, very skinny – no. In fashion, as in life, there are certain forces that will make themselves heard. Slimane is one of them. He believes in his own vision to its utmost core: from the mechanical light installation that fanfares every show (this time it was a huge geometric ball) to the stick thin models that walk his runway (a new one turns 18 every minute), to the emerging rock bands that score his collections (the irreverently named Crack Cloud), and the vintage-inspired aesthetic that embodies his garments. No matter how deep you search, the ultimate proposal of any of his collections – and indeed the one he showed on Sunday night – is in essence the brand of Hedi Slimane.

Seasonal collections, however, are put in the world to propose something new for the immediate future. So how do you, as an observer of such collections, approach the work of a designer, who believes so strongly in a consistent point of view? You could read into Sunday evening’s Celine collection and say that it proposed a more cropped and roomier tailored trouser, or that its suiting evoked the tie-wearing Patrick Bateman yuppie dad tailoring of 1980s’ Valentino; only cut for a much, much skinnier frame. You could talk about the glitter and sequinned pieces, which were no doubt of a notable artisanal value. Or you could point out the obvious nostalgia – or was it wistfulness – that existed within the collection for the mid-2000s when indie music culture was at its high and everyone looked like the boys, who walked the 2019 Celine runway. What has to be stated – for the sake of the history books – is that Celine menswear, which didn’t exist under Slimane’s predecessor Phoebe Philo, was brought into the world looking like this.

Dries Van Noten AW19 at Paris Fashion Week Men's

Dries Van Noten has presented a selection of voices that accompanied his AW 2019/2020 collection—an aural backdrop of snatches of conversations and interviews with the men Van Noten admires. There was David Bowie, of course: his pleated pants, a flavor of his ’80s persona. There was David Hockney, talking about getting up mid-morning in California, and going out to see what’s around to paint.

There was a burst of Jimi Hendrix—cue a riff on tie-dye. Kurt Cobain, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon, Yves Saint Laurent, David Byrne. And in the middle of it, there was the mordant voice of an Englishman, nailing the state of affairs today. “I think the whole of our society is run by insane people for insane objects," he said. Turned out to be John Lennon, in the ’60s.
