Dior Menswear S/S 2026 Paris

[Alquimista]

The presence of a ADULT male is crucial here. It's refreshing and traditional at the same time. Very Christian Dior Monsieur indeed.

that's exactly what Christian Dior Monsieur looked like as well and thats the intent as well of JWA to balance the twink fashion dior boy

why should two types of male archetypes not co exist in his dior ...the client is not one life style or age or body type ..Dior is a luxury department store at this point, you can eat there, you can buy baby clothes next door, a tie for your dad, a bag for hubby or your mom, sports for your brother shoes , dress shoes for hubby, home goods for mother in law, a book on dior for your niece etc etc

Fashion photographers modeling capturing themselves.. 🙊. He could've just called Bruce Weber if he was going to channel his work, lives close by and probably unemployed.

I just went to the boutique to see what the price point is going to be and wow everything (apart from the jeans, the shirts, and the shoes) is so expensive! The capes were like 12,000 euros! The knitwear was pretty pricey too considering it is quite basic merch stuff.

Dior needs to work on their offering if they want to make this a success, because at the moment the things that are "affordable" are quite basic and boring and what already exists in the boutique. I don't really see what is supposed to "re-ignite" spending in terms of this collection?

Also re: that embroidered coat that everyone is going crazy over - there is literally one on the rack in the menswear section at Avenue Montaigne that is almost identical LOL.

The blue pull with the zipper and the Dior logo in the chest looks so ridiculous in a man over 25 💀

I understand that already but it’s just not wildly different or fresher than what Kim jones was doing in my opinion. New designer, same stuff. I find it to be even more stale but I’m also not a big JWA.

Perhaps because I worked there, I find it to be cheap. The mask slipped.

i always found dior way too expensive for what they are offering in rtw. Specially seeing who wears their rtw... Oh well im glad givenchy is there

liked it but the worst 36 year olds you know who crush YA fiction are going to be carrying these book totes alongside people whose favourite book is To Kill a Mockingbird

Paris Fashion Week’s ‘exclusive’ designs often hide their true makers.

Case in point: Dior’s latest showpiece handcrafted by skilled artisans in Lucknow - India, yet there origin were absent from the narrative.

Dior’s $200K Coat: Stitched by 12 Indian Artisans using Mukaish embroidery a local indian craft in the city Lucknow by using metal wide treads as embroidery/via twisting technique , Credited Nowhere
In order to make this coat you're going to have to wait at least 34 days because that is how long it takes to create it.

This isn’t an isolated incident. It’s a systemic issue in luxury fashion.

how cultural labor gets erased—and what the industry must change.

 

[Frederic01]

To be fair Dior is pretty open about their relationship with the Indian embroidery house that Maria Grazia brought on board when she started at Dior, The Chanakya School of Craft. who often work with Dior both in RTW and Haute Couture. They were also often credited and shown in the behind-the-scenes videos. The founder of the school features everywhere in Dior's social media. I believe they even staged worldwide exhibitions in collaboration with the school, crediting and highlighting Indian embroidery techniques.

I don't understand what certain people want in regards to this. Do they want the embroidery school to be credited underneath each and every post on social media about this coat? Or do they want every single artisan to be named? I'm confused?

Dior is one of the few companies that actually highlights the traditional craft of the people that work on their garments. Just look at all those Cruise shows and the behind-the-scenes videos of Maria Grazia visiting all those manufacturers and studios.

 

[Monsieur Cristobal]

You are right Frederic01, but at the same time we all knew that the feathers from the sheer shirt at Kim Jones' debut Dior show were embroidered at Lemarié.
That is the type of information that houses love to give to Loïc Prigent to be proudly displayed in his video-ads.

Maybe they wanted that same type of credit.


Now, I have a question: if 12 people were working more than one month in India, it is still fair to put the "Made in France" tag?
That material was transformed into a coat in France, yes, but the added value comes from its hand embroidery.
These made in France, made in Italy, swiss made,... are still opaque.

 

[Frederic01]

Literally, these people are trying to create drama out of nothing! I don't know a European house more dedicated to preserving Indian craftsmanship than Dior. And they are proud of the work that the craftsmen do and show it off time and time again on their social media channels.

There has been strong nationalist rhetorics and politics in India for a while. See Modri, his party, the headlines there. The Prada drama and this one are pandering to that domestic audience. Those medias live on outrage.

But I agree with Monsieur Cristobal; the coat should be labeled «Made in India », most of its production cost and retail value was made in India.
It’s 200,000 price tag reflects the fact it’s fully embroidered, hence the Indians’ work and not the assemblage in Paris.

Now the same coat but with a Donegal tweed, the fabrics worth less than the pattern, cutting and sewing, so it would be more a Made in France than a Made in Scotland.

That’s a good question. To me, if it is not entirely made in France, if any part of production is outside of France or Italy or Spain, it is no longer made in France. So for me it is ‘false advertising’. But I have strict views on what “Made in” means.

you understand of course that that is unworkable in reality. a lot of OEMs source from overseas for cars, electronics, etc. Even textiles must be made from cotton grown elsewhere, etc. The supply chain is far too globalized for that to be possible.

France grows like 90% of the world linen but that's all, barely any wool and no cotton ofc, so 100% of the product made in only one country is just impossible.

Dior is super transparent with the made-ins. Why do you say the made in France thing? Dior products are not made in France and they don’t reflect so in their tags.

They are made in many places, especially Italy, but when they do the products in China (with the best manufacturers because they have some technologies that are not available in Europe), they also say that they are made in China, so don’t get the made in France fuss.🤨

I just can’t with that kind of articles.
