The Dior Men\u2019s designer paid tribute to the late icon with his Fall 2020 collection.
Two years ago, the fashion world lost one of its greatest unsung heroes: Judy Blame. The British stylist, jewelry designer and punk iconoclast defined the gender-bending London club scene of the '80s and collaborated with countless designers and musicians such as Neneh Cherry, Boy George and Björk. The passing of Blame affected Dior's men's artistic director Kim Jones profoundly, as the two have been friends since Jones was just 16.
So for his Fall 2020 men's collection shown in Paris this week, Jones paid tribute to the late creative by incorporating various references to Blame's work as seen in the logos, embroidery, jewelry and other accoutrements. He did this while adding elements from the brand's rich archives and history, particularly the '50s era of haute couture. The result is a stunning feat of savoir-faire that made this the most elegant and opulent effort yet from Jones at Dior.
See below for a closer look at every single Judy Blame reference from Dior Men's Fall 2020 collection.
