Además de su papel en Dior, Jones es también director artístico de ropa de mujer en Fendi, y es un dúo de grandes actuaciones que lo mantienen muy ocupado. Tan ocupado, de hecho, que uno se imagina que personajes como Kerouac, Burroughs y otros se revolverían en sus tumbas al ver su agenda.Kim Jones nos cuenta sobre su nueva colección para Dior Men AW/22 Kim Jones nos cuenta sobre su nueva colección para Dior Men AW/22

"Jack Kerouac wrote on the road in 1957," says Jones (Christian Dior died at age 52, at the cusp of his power, that same year), "So I got in touch with Kerouac's heritage and I worked with themTo include some of his works of art and his writings in the collection.I wanted to tell On The Road's story for a modern era.The Beats continue to inspire the new generations, so it seemed interesting to make that road trip through clothing, via Dior ".

The resulting collection is both a tribute to Kerouac's work and a treasure map along Jones' roads and paths.The grunge of the fair isle grunge, which at first glance seem worn out in the hems but are actually full of sequins (a design track taken directly from the Monsieur Dior archive), they are taken with pants cut in Denim washed;While suede and crocodile mountain boots are combined with nylon shorts, collegiate coats and library -style window blazers, inspired by the dior collections of mid -century of Yves Saint Laurent and Marc Bohan.

Mix and Match aesthetics, in part indifferently Galician and partly American (so far, Kerouac, born of Franco-Canadian parents and raised in New York), is also present in the most elegant segments of the collection.The dress shirts with sequins are carried with spaghetti ties and thick mailbox shoes in burgundy and burnished silver, while the long point underpants touch the hemof more influential messwear in the last 10 years), they are designed to resemble "the abuse of books".
