The creative director of Dior Men's discusses his Beat Generation-inspired AW22 show and nurturing London's up-and-coming design talent.
But you could also look to his collaboration between Louis Vuitton andtoo, for another encapsulation of Kim’s personality. By offering up the weight of LV to a not-quite-forgotten, yet unjustly overlooked designer like Christopher Nemeth, Kim used the height of his platform to shine a light on Christopher’s work; both to help Christopher’s house and family financially, while also giving this designer his long-deserved moment.
He is a connector, and the connection to be made in London for this show: Christian Dior died in 1957, the same year that Jack Kerouac published Both were involved in the emergence of a new kind of “cool” in the 50s, both burned brightly and have left a huge influence in their wake. The Beats set the template for revolutionary youth culture; Christian Dior for the revolutionary new movements in fashion.
“The Beats were so free-spirited, and I wanted the collection to feel like you had all these clothes in a suitcase – stuff from both the Beats and the Dior archive – and you can pull them out and wear them in different ways for each look.” “Society was so conservative then and I think the Beats helped break that down,” he continues, on the relationship between Dior and the creative set. “Especially with the youth culture in Paris, for example, which was really the thing that Yves was looking at in his 1960 collection. I think Jack Kerouac and Christian Dior had these simultaneous lives, which was interesting to me, you can tell a story with it.”manuscript, famously written on one long continuous scroll of paper over three weeks.
Kim is famously an obsessive collector – an “organised hoarder”, as he puts it. He collects everything; fashion, clothes, ephemera, art, paintings, books, and manuscripts. He’d spent lockdown at home in London, and his collection has proved a valuable source of inspiration for his work over the last few years of pandemic-enforced solitude. After all, pre-lockdown, Kim was also, famously and quite literally, on the road himself – for most of the working year, and throughout most of his life, too.
