Jonathan Anderson's Dior Debut: A Sensual, Playful Homage to Galliano and Horror
Jonathan Anderson, the literary student turned sartorial connoisseur, has made waves as the new creative director of Dior Men's. His latest womenswear collection for the prestigious fashion house nodded to John Galliano's sultry fashion pirates and 18th-century grandeur, while incorporating playful details. The show, a spectacle in itself, featured an upside-down pyramid screen displaying a sizzle reel of refracted horror movie clips and archival runway footage.
Anderson is building a new aesthetic and sensual philosophy for Dior, spanning menswear, womenswear, and couture collections. His womenswear debut presented a soft, mature vision of girlishness that fortifies modern women. The collection, with a vast number of looks, has ensured his immortality in the fashion world.
Peter Philips, Dior Makeup's creative and image director, created a fresh, romantic beauty look for the show, complementing Anderson's designs. The runway set, designed by Anderson himself, was a testament to his unique vision and understanding of the Dior legacy.
Anderson's innovative approach to design and his ability to create a powerful global language for Dior have been evident in his recent collections. His granting of VIP fittings and celebrity guests' live-streamed arrivals to fans has further solidified his impact on the fashion world. With Alexandra Hildreth, Fashion News Editor at ELLE, praising his work, Anderson's future at Dior looks promising.
