Supreme’s Tremaine Emory Is The Latest Designer To “Guest-Edit” A Dior Menswear Collection

Not to be outdone by Dior’s main event – a monumental Fall 2023 men’s show, staged against the backdrop of the Great Pyramid of Giza – American designer Tremaine Emory teamed up with Kim Jones earlier in the week, for a smaller (yet no less hotly attended) presentation at Cairo’s Grand Egyptian Museum.

Together, the duo unveiled ‘Dior Tears’ – a capsule that “celebrates the inventiveness of the house of Dior and the strength of its creative dialogues”. In practice, this means a tight edit of pieces that very evenhandedly channel both Jones’ and Emory’s creative energies – the latter already a well-known force in fashion thanks to his work at Supreme and Denim Tears.

Dior Tears

There were a number of themes running through the collection, chief among these being the union of familiar iconographies. Dior’s emblematic serif font has been reimagined in the style of Denim Tears’ cotton wreath; with that new hybridised logo cropping up in everything from the capsule’s tees, footwear and – as hypebeasts were promised – the ever-popular saddle bag.

Conversely, Emory’s influence is at its most palpable, not in logos or a range of stylised accessories, but in the cut-and-make of individual statement pieces. Crocheted denim trousers, breezy sweater vests and outerwear that embraces the warm ‘n’ fuzzy quality of mohair are all big wins for the ‘Dior Tears’ line-up.

Individually? There are even a good deal of pieces you can wear in a more muted fashion come next Fall, though there’s no denying that the fully kitted looks – complete with knit hat and technicolour scarf – are quite the way to tackle the gloom of Fall. Peep a range of the co-designed pieces below.
