The Dior x Stone Island collab is here, and it's the stuff that fashion enthusiasts dream of (no cap) Dior and Stone Island have, maybe, pulled off the smartest, most logical collab yet. Because while some partnerships are teased for months and months on end, others (like this one) are just dropped on a random Monday morning in May – and it successfully marries the Stone Island faithful with the sci-fi fashion boys of Dior's creative director Kim Jones. Obsession: it’s what fuels most of the fashion industry. From insatiable consumers to compulsive creatives, it’s near-manic fixations that keep the whole show somehow ticking along, season after season. And when obsessives get together — well, things start to happen.⁠ ⁠ And that’s where the @dior and @stoneisland capsule collection come in. While the Parisian fashion house and Italian streetwear label might seem an unlikely pair, they’re bound by – yes – obsessives. That’s according to Dior Homme’s creative director, Kim Jones (@kimjonesstudio). (And as one himself, he should know.) ⁠ ⁠ Christian Dior and Massimo Osti, founders of Dior and Stone Island respectively, are people “from opposite ends of the fashion spectrum,” says Jones. One's “haute couture vision” is far from the other’s “military functionality” – “yet I think they’d recognize something in each other and in what they achieved through clothing.”⁠
