Best of Both World
Under Kim Jones’s direction, Dior cultivated a passionate relationship with art. Now, more than ever, this fascination grows at the heart of Dior’s inventiveness. The artistic director continues his passion to work with a new artist each season with Stussy becoming the new guest artist for Dior Homme’s Pre-Fall 2020 collection. Shawn Stussy, who is the founder of Stussy, has come off his retirement for this project. His contributions can be seen in the reinvented Dior logo and a revisit of the bee—one of Dior’s emblems. Furthermore, he has also designed new prints and provided inspiration for the runway show in Miami on the eve of Art Basel Miami. This entrancing, graphic collaboration embodies the timeless modernity of Dior and its love of art. Stussy’s signature handstyle, the “Wave Print,” plays a big role in the collection, adorning everything from the bucket hats to apparel and the footwear.
