Since the beginning of this year, we have been following the meteoric rise of UK-based fashion house Dior, and their recent collaboration with Hollywood A-lister, Robert Pattinson, on a capsule collection of ultra-modern accessories and clothing. The British fashion house is famous for their ready-to-wear luxury sportswear and premium leather goods, and this collaboration is no exception, with pieces ranging from luxe accessories for women to hoodies and t-shirts for men.
The Luxury Leatherette Goodies
The luxury leather goods collection, which Dior has christened Leatherette, is a unique collaboration between the luxury fashion house and sports equipment company, Nike. The collection is made up of premium leatherette goods such as handbags, backpacks and travel bags, and is available for purchase at dior.com.
Nike and Dior have teamed up before for designer collaborations such as Kate Winslet’s luxury, limited-edition sneakers and Balmain’s luxury handbags, so this project was a natural progression for the two brands.
An Accessory For Women: A Leather Wallet
The collection of luxury leather goods for women is inspired by military attire, specifically the trench coat. The collection boasts classic yet fashion-forward looks that are suitable for both day and evening wear. The pieces are made from the finest materials, with leather and metal detailing on the exterior and silk and velvet on the interior. Made in Italy, the handbags and travel bags in the collection are designed to last a lifetime.
The brand’s founder, Christian Dior, named the accessory range after a type of leather dress, the Wallets. Weaving companies in Italy, France and Spain supplied the luxury brand with the original samples of this style of leather dress. Dior has also designed a matching Purse, to accompany the Wallets. The luxury brand is planning on launching these items in Europe, but has not yet revealed any further details about the range.
T-Shirts And Hoodies For Men
As mentioned, since the beginning of this year, we have been following the meteoric rise of UK-based fashion house Dior, and their recent collaboration with Hollywood A-lister, Robert Pattinson, on a capsule collection of ultra-modern accessories and clothing. The British fashion house is famous for their ready-to-wear luxury sportswear and premium leather goods, and this collaboration is no exception, with pieces ranging from luxe accessories for women to hoodies and t-shirts for men.
Dior and Pattinson worked closely with renowned graphic designer, Juan Ho, to create an edgy yet classic look for the collection. Juan Ho is best known for his work with the luxury brands, Hermès and Montblanc, and his most recent project involves collaborating with Hollywood heavyweights, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, on their women’s ready-to-wear collection for 2021.
Montblanc Inspiration
Dior’s sports gear collection for men is named after the French heritage brand, Montblanc, whose traditional brownstone pencils have been a firm favourite with designers for more than a century. Working with the British fashion house, Montblanc introduced a new formula for the iconic brownstone, using an innovative combination of vegetable-tanned wood and metal in a nod to traditional bicycle locks and modern technology. The pencils will be available in a range of exotic wood-grain patterns and in bright, eye-catching hues like orange, navy and yellow that complement both day and evening wear looks.
Dior and Montblanc have collaborated on handbags and clutches, with an array of exotic wood-grain patterns and a range of hues that complement both day and evening wear looks. This capsule collection is made up of the brand’s emblematic black handbags and clutches, designed with classic yet fashion-forward looks that are suitable for both day and evening wear. A standout clutch in the collection is made from a combination of soft leather and supple metal with a studious pattern embossed into the leather. A black handbag paired with a white dress is arguably the ultimate stylish duo.
