There was no better backdrop for Dior’s latest menswear show than buzzy Miami in the days leading up to the annual Art Basel festival. Designer Kim Jones created a fantastic collection that Creative and Image Director of Christian Dior Makeup Peter Philips described as a “cyber surfer who does graffiti.” That translated to exactly the color palette you’d expect: bold neon and tropical shades that extended from the clothing to the bucket hats to the stripe of acidic green makeup. The entire runway and outside of the building at the new Rubell Museum complex in the city’s Allapattah neighborhood—just west of Wynwood—was wrapped in Shawn Stussy Dior graffiti in shades of electric yellow, green, and blue.
