Dior Men: Jonathan Anderson's Morning After the Party

Dior's Spring/Summer 2027 menswear show opened almost like a short film: a lone model walked in, plugged a phone into the sound system, and a Fred Again soundtrack took over the room.

Jonathan Anderson's fourth menswear collection for the house, staged inside the Musée Nissim de Camondo mid-restoration, built its entire premise around the morning after a very long night bow ties sat crooked, dressing gowns fused with trench coats, and a new 'Bobby' suit, inspired by a vintage Marc Bohan jacket Anderson bought for himself, appeared in sheer silk chiffon printed with pinstripes. A last-minute schedule change, pushing the show from 2:30pm to 9am to dodge record Paris heat, only reinforced the theme.

Critics called it Anderson's most fluent Dior outing yet proof that a designer's fourth collection in a role is often more revealing than the first.
