Dior x Travis Scott
The unveiling of Dior’s collection was one of the most anticipated this season. For one thing, the French brand organized one of the few in-person shows of this Fashion Week. For another, expectations were high about the first-ever collaboration between Dior and a musician, in “the house’s 74-year existence”. Although Dior, with Kim Jones at the helm of its menswear line, has become synonymous with artistic crossovers, the joint collection with the rapper Travis Scott is, in the words of Dior’s Creative Director, “an unprecedented event.” The collection was named Cactus Jack Dior after Scott’s record label, Cactus Jack.View this post on Instagram

The show took the viewers right into a desert setting juxtaposed by psychedelic clouds. The sensibilities of two unique minds lead to an artfully curated presentation consisting of pastel hues, innovative accessories and deconstructed suits. The tactility of the knitwear and silk trousers not only elevated the attire but also showcased a relaxed silhouette. In addition, the show featured unreleased tracks from the co-designer and Grammy Award winning artist, Travis Scott. One of the striking points of “Cactus Jack” was the use of neon green, a trend in this season’s runways that unintentionally reminds of NCT’s official color.Cactus Jack x DIOR SS22!🖤 pic.twitter.com/kkxPNglg2v

With an invitation to one of the most important shows of Paris Men’s Fashion Week, Mark’s first steps into fashion seem promising. Now that NCT’s unlimited expansion has reached the—digital—front row of fashion shows, we can’t wait to see the members of the boy group occupying those seats in person, in upcoming seasons. For the time being, you can check how Lucas attended Gucci’s show in Shanghai and Jaehyun joined the star-studded guest list for Prada’s Spring/Summer 2022 collection.A flawless face and a perfect body, Sehun has been taking Dior outfits into another level. His strong presence, confident posture and alluring gazes are well matched with the style of Dior. He is really made for this brand 🖤💐#세훈 #SEHUN #DiorBoySEHUN pic.twitter.com/o8NgoZOllG
