CELINE Homme‘s ‘Dysfunctional Bauhaus’ Summer 2023 marks the 20th anniversary since Hedi Slimane first showed at Palais de Tokyo back in January 2002 for Dior Homme Autumn/Winter 2002.
Slimane always had a fascination for the historical venue’s Art Deco monumental architecture, and with his latest collection wanted to “pay tribute to the institution and remember this moment in his menswear reform.” With hands in their pockets, models marched down the runway sporting sheer, embellished blouses, skinny neckties, sleek suits, stovepipe leather trousers, and raw-edged denim imbued with an androgynous rock spirit.
Outside, it was K-pop pandemonium as crowds swarmed the venue to get a peek at Lisa from Blackpink and V from BTS, alongside Park Bo-gum, Eddie Redmayne and Thomas Brodie-Sangster.
