Dior has launched its Pre-Fall 2023 Menswear collection and let’s take a look at the new fall collection, where every road led to Egypt for the catwalk show.
has spent the last year commemorating the 75th anniversary of Dior’s New Look with a series of collections that draw parallels between his design handwriting and that of Monsieur Dior.
Everything from the house’s humble beginnings to Dior’s love of gardening has fed Jones’ collections, where Christian Dior signatures, such as the Bar Jacket, have collided with Jones’ romantic tailoring and sport-inspired men’s staples.
The return of destination shows post-pandemic has seen Jones truly outdo himself, with previous Dior men’s catwalks taking place in Tokyo and Miami.
His Fall 2023 collection was shot in front of the Great Pyramid of Giza, just outside of Cairo, which is one of the last remaining Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
Models trudged across a winding catwalk like they’d stepped off the set of Dune, clad in a range of hues reflecting the change from day to nightfall in the desert.
Jones avoided overt references to hieroglyphics and Cleopatra, instead focusing on Ancient Egypt’s fascination with astronomy and Monsieur Dior’s obsession with astrology.
Throughout, 3D-printed chest pieces, kilt-trouser hybrids, bulky boots, and futuristic helmets created a fitting uniform for these desert troopers, which was topped off with a series of NASA-sourced jackets, tops, and leggings.
Jones didn’t just put on a spectacular show under the stars for his guests. Dior’s trip to Egypt also saw the designer unveil a capsule collection designed by Tremaine Emory, the founder of Denim Tears and the creative director of Supreme.
The collection, dubbed Dior Tears, served as a “dialogue between New York and Paris, via New Orleans,” with vivid striped tops, fuzzy knits, and baggy dungarees standing out.
