Jonathan Anderson’s Debut Collection

Introduction to the Collection

One of Jonathan’s greatest strengths is to reinterpret the past in an extremely modern and female way – the way he revised Monsieur Dior’s codes, feels contemporary. It is incredible what he achieved in such a short time. He started working on it in June. The bags, especially La Cigale with the small arc, were particularly notable.

Reactions from the Fashion Community

Stefano Pilati’s Perspective

I liked it very much. In a way, the men’s show was a little too close to his earlier job. It cannot be easy to get into this new way of thinking. But I think he got it and is running with this show. Our relationship is based on pure mutual admiration.

Inez and Vinoodh’s Thoughts

I want everything and that’s a problem. Can we now have the bags and shoes? We can’t wait until March. I want to wear everything and he also gives us so many things to shoot. It was a very confident collection. It also took a lot of courage to make such a film – we are big fans of Adam Curtis.

Roopal Patel’s Review

Jonathan Anderson’s debut was great. It was chic, effortless and in harmony with the current zeitgeist. The delay of a new era for the house marked. We loved the open white dress, the shaped jackets and coats, the freight and service program details, the beautiful top dresses, the effortless cool of all jeans and the couture evening clothes. There is no shortage of iconic accessories and shoes that made their debut on the runway. Jonathan Anderson is the designer of our time.

Derek Blasberg’s Opinion

I think the Dior customer will be very happy. Jonathan is such a polyglot; He can do so much. I thought the video that showed the show was an incredible tribute to all people who came in front of him. Usually you get standing ovations in your last show, not in your first – so I think that people are very excited.

Chioma Nnadi’s Insight

I really loved it how Jonathan made information about the archive and twisted it in a way. Like the shrinked rock suits, which were tailored to the length of the original bar jacket. Such a genius play on proportion that he does it so well.
