Christian Dior’s new designer Kris van Assche has unveiled his debut collection for the 60-year-old house, returning to the elegance of its founder and 1950s Hollywood style. The showing was the most eagerly-awaited event at the Paris men’s fashion run for next spring-summer, which ended overnight.

It saw the young Belgian use subtle tweeds and time-tested greys with tongue-in-cheek adaptations. Impeccable tailoring and silhouettes were also on show.
