The artist Daniel Arsham washed the Christian Dior runway in millennial pink in Paris last week for mens fashion week. With broken concrete letters spelling out the brand, Arsham gave the ruwnay show a dystopian vibe with futuristic fossils, brutalist architecture and old furniture. The artist told i-D: “We spent a lot of time in the Dior archive, looking back at designs and objects that were created either by Mr Dior himself or in the house, starting from the 50s really. So I think a lot of inspiration came from there. A lot of the collection was about identifying these iconic pieces, from the house. A clock that had been in Christian Dior’s atelier in Paris, a phone that was on his desk in his house in the south of France.”
