PARIS (AP) — Dior’s menswear maestro Kim Jones has transformed a sunny afternoon in the French capital into a starlit evening of balletic grandeur at Paris Fashion Week in a display of fashion theatrics. Jones delivered an exuberant spectacle at the Ecole Militaire annex on Friday. The collection intertwined Dior’s fine tailoring with a joyful explosion of theatrical glamour. It drew screams and cheers from a VIP audience as it explored the duality of an artist’s persona onstage and backstage. Nigo’s Friday show for Kenzo showcased a dynamic fusion of soft warrior-inspired designs with a modern streetwear twist, reflecting a sophisticated evolution of the brand’s East-meets-West aesthetic.
