theres a billion bands/film adaptaions of robin hood with the same hair styles.
if i remember correctly similar hair styles popped up before in HS's ysl collections...one of them atleast.
and didnt GEO used to have a picture of a (i think) alexander mcqueen ad that loooked exactly like him cause of the hair.
none the less its looks gross.

Having seen the collection in it's entirety I must say that there were a lot of really nice pieces that I think, will satisfy customers on the salesfloor. Take away all those silly plastic bracelets (I agree with everyone saying that they were hideous!) and those extra-large geek shades, and it consists of mostly wearable clothing.
There were a couple of almost deconstructed pieces (if you can say that with someone like Hedi, who is best known for his polished, "perfect" finish) that I thought were a little awkward, such as those waistcoats and jackets which only consisted of the curved buttonline in the front (I guess we should better call them accessories, rather than a garment) or the jacket with a big, obi-style pillow in the back (Hedi should better stop doing "silly" because his vision doesn't seem humourous at all).
Those long camisoles worn underneath a lot of looks as a layering piece were a nice additions to the carefully-build Dior Homme repertoir, in fact that's what I remember most precisely of the runway, seeing all those elongated jackets walking in front of me, with a hint of a curved hemline poking out from underneath over those glossy stretch leather pants. There were two jackets that I especially liked, one being the short sleeved, unlined blazer (I was looking for something like that for some time now, to wear in high summer when you probably wouldn't wear a jacket anymore) and the other being a short cutaway coat that cannot be closed except with a small belt that is barely more than just a decorative attribute. I am still not entirely sure which one I should get for myself as I liked both - I added pictures of both for your reference!
As far as the show production was concerned, I remember precisely that all the models were joking that it would be a really silly show to do this time because of the angel in the end and the "sound check" intervention before the show (there was a big speaker floating above the catwalk before the show started, I took the picture from my, *erhm*, front row seat (the Villa Moda owner didn't attend the show so they gave it to me as I was just standing around for a while, thank you!))... I definitely agree that it was rather confusing to look at this time, unlike previous outings at Dior. I personally loved the new haircut though, but also seeing those new, long-haired guys that did the show (who is that blond guy who wore the ruched, silver bomber jacket with white sash and tunique? he's awesome!).

By the time I was in Paris, word was that the negotiations for Hedi's contract renewal were not yet completeted...
as far as the actual collection fitting is concerned, they will probably re-fit the size 44 entirely as per the samples in the showroom (which more or less, correspond to the fit on the runway, without the cropped sleeve length). You can thank the head buyer for all Japanese Dior Homme corners and boutiques, because he said he had fitting problems as the product was "not edgy enough" because of the generous cutting of previous collections.

Thanks for the info Tricot. I love the first jacket on you. The second isn't ad, and I definitely agree that men need an alternative to a blazer for high summer...but I feel uneasy about the sleeves.

I actually like the sleeves, it's a bit clever. I'd say these last two seasons have been Dior Hommes most innovative in years. Too bad the runway styling is so much of a distraction
