Kim Jones sharpens VIP-filled Dior men's fashion with a structured, masculine recalibration

The Dior's men's fashion show happened inside the historic Ecole Militaire with the Eiffel Tower looming above. Kate Moss and Robert Pattinson joined a star-studded audience for show at Paris Fashion Week on Friday. It was a slight but noticeable departure for Kim Jones. He is renowned for his gender-fluid designs. But Jones embraced a sharper and more traditionally masculine aesthetic this season. A minimalist and angular staircase descended onto the runway. It set the stage for Jones to unveil a collection inspired by the house’s mid-century heritage. The collection took cues from Christian Dior’s iconic “H Line.” Jones reinterpreted it as clean and structured lines for men.
