one of my fav collections of all time , i still have a bunch of stuff from this and its still fun as hell to wear even after all these yrs . i get a shitload a use from the white dress shirt w/ the xtra long sleeve cuffs
.
Funny how quite a bit of it looks clumsy and unappealing in retrospect.

Yeah, you definitely had to be there at the time (hence my comment above). It was a zeitgeist shifting thing. It's not as obvious from the collections as from the ad campaigns, the changing of the silhouette, the PR blitzkrieg, etc. Hedi at Dior was the first designer that convinced the mainstream man (and by that I mean, the GQ-reading, Hugo Boss wearing male) to try something more adventurous. For better or worse.

Those long coats are absolutely divine. This collection's tailoring, combined with the very heavy wool/cashmere fabrics resulted in some seriously beautiful garments. I'd kill for the coat in picture #3.
what the fuck did we see in stacking
lol, agreed!

Love the extended cuffs on the shirts =D.
Haha, true. Am also shocked at how absurd some of these models look ... like twelve year olds stealing stuff from their older brother's closet.Originally Posted by Faust
That said, considering this is from 2002 and it's such a stylized aesthetic, it's held up pretty well.
Thank you for the retrospective. It is a beautiful collection.
A 10th anniversary. bravo! They still look modern and beautiful in 2012. Thanks Hedi Slimane and the behinded designer of AW02 who I guess that he is Nicolas Andreas Taralis.
