In 2021, Dior embarked on an innovative partnership with the esteemed French football club, Paris Saint-Germain, marking the first of its kind in the world of fashion. This unique collaboration involved Dior designing the official wardrobe for the club, a commitment that has continued to this day. Kim Jones, the Artistic Director of Dior Men, has once again showcased his creative prowess by crafting an exquisite line for the Paris Saint-Germain team, infusing their athletic attire with a touch of elegance and Parisian flair.
The Dior x Paris Saint-Germain collection is a harmonious blend of rich black, deep blue, and sophisticated gray, transcending the concept of mere uniforms to make a bold statement in style and sophistication. It embraces relaxed silhouettes, featuring pieces like a Harrington-style jacket, a cozy knit sweater, and an Oxford shirt. The collection also highlights the Dior ‘Explorer’ loafers, adorned with the iconic ‘CD’ logo, representing the fusion of luxury fashion and athleticism.
Adding a touch of Dior’s signature decadence, the ‘Hit the Road’ backpack and toiletry bag feature the unmistakable ‘CD’ diamond motif. The collection also boasts a meticulously crafted double-breasted suit, enhanced with a strap and a lapel pin, bearing Monsieur Dior’s initials and showcasing Dior’s exceptional craftsmanship. Completing this unique collaboration are a set of exclusive accessories, including a cashmere scarf, a silk tie, and a reversible belt.
The Dior x Paris Saint-Germain partnership transcends traditional boundaries, bringing together two seemingly disparate worlds – sportsmanship and sophistication. It is a celebration of excellence and a testament to the seamless coexistence of luxury and athleticism.
