Jonathan Anderson Made His Dior Debut Today—Follow Along With Vogue Editors Here
This year is full of fresh beginnings in fashion, with new creative directors presenting debut collections, among them Matthieu Blazy at Chanel (coming this October), Michael Rider at Celine (taking place right before the start of couture on July 6), and Glenn Martens at Maison Margiela (showing his first Artisanal couture collection on July 9). Today, we got to tick a big one off the list, as Jonathan Anderson presented his inaugural collection for Dior at the Hôtel des Invalides in Paris. Since most of us were planning to tune into the livestream—and texting each other as we watched—we thought it would be fun to share our thoughts and reactions on the live blog. Scroll through to read our first-reactions to the show, and check back in next week as we liveblog the Celine show (and later Margiela).
A Correction: MOTHER but not Mom
An important correction courtesy of Vogue Contributing Editor Max Ortega: the woman I erroneously thought was Jonathan Anderson s mom in a screenshot of the finale posted earlier, is in fact, Donatella Versace. So not mom, but MOTHER. Designers! They re just like us!
I mean! What is not to love about these? They are absolutely unhinged and yet injected with REVERENCE for HISTORY!
