WHEN KIM MET SHAWN
DESIGNER KIM JONES CREATED RETAIL (AND RESALE) MADNESS BY MARRYING SUPREME AND LOUIS VUITTON. NOW, AT DIOR MEN, JONES HAS COLLABED WITH SURF, SKATE AND STREETWEAR LEGEND SHAWN STUSSY FOR A COLLECTION THAT HAS HYPEBEASTS AROUND THE GLOBE LOSING THEIR MINDS
“I GOTTA KEEP MOVING FORWARD AND I FEEL THIS PROJECT WITH KIM AND DIOR FOR ME IS IN THAT SPIRIT.”—
SHAWN STUSSY
“I HAD THE CLASSIC STUSSY TROUSERS, A MOCK NECK STUSSY TEE WITH THE DOUBLE ‘S’ ON IT AND A STRIPED TOP WITH SHAWN’S HANDWORK ON IT.”
— KIM JONES
“I WENT TO HAWAII AND EXECUTED THE ART AT MY HOME THERE. KIM AND I WENT BACK AND FORTH UNTIL IT FELT RIGHT. THIS BACK AND FORTH LED TO A PROPER COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE TALENT INVOLVED BEYOND JUST PLACING SOME LOGOS ON THINGS AND CALLING IT A COLLABORATION.”—
