Kim Jones showcases the DIOR x STONE ISLAND joint collection in the latest advertisement for the 2024 Fall/Winter series. A preview of the DIOR x STONE ISLAND capsule collection has also been pleasantly unveiled.
The STONE ISLAND campaign welcomes another heavyweight star as Kim Jones debuts the DIOR x STONE ISLAND collaborative black sheepskin outdoor jacket. Adorned with distressed effects and badges from DIOR and STONE ISLAND, these joint pieces are crafted from grainy Nappa leather, drawing inspiration from 20th-century pilot jackets. Throughout wear, these leather pieces gradually unveil a unique luster or subtle creases, revealing their captivating undertones. Specific resins and waxes are utilized to create nuanced layers between color and leather, enhancing the garments through meticulous manual processes to replicate this classic visual effect. Finally, a unique coating technique ensures durability and color fastness. Each processed leather exhibits slight variations, rendering each piece uniquely characteristic.
