Quote Of The Day: Bernard Willhelm Talks About Dior Homme

coutorture — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 07:38:19 PDT

“

No, those guys are all too skinny--It's just something I don't want to touch. I'm so bored of guys in white shirts and black jackets. My last men's collection was a renaissance work. I wanted to look back at how clothes used to be made. First came the body, and then we made clothes to fit it. I had to learn how to cut again. It took me ten years to learn that.

>> INSIDER WIRE -Earlier this week, deputy managing director at Christian Dior (and LVMH heiress) Delphine Arnault sat front row at Gareth Pugh's debut menswear show, prompting rumors that he is being looked at to either consult for Dior Homme or perhaps take over from Kris van Assche. So far, there's only been denial from both camps - Delphine chalked her appearance up to "always [being] interested in young designers," and a Pugh spokesman assured: "There have been no discussions whatsoever with Dior or LVMH about any kind of design role."

Gareth Pugh to Consult for Dior Homme?

fashionologie — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 11:12:52 PST

>> Leave it to Fashion Week to turn up a juicy rumor or two. Currently being served up? The future of Gareth Pugh. At his premiere menswear show in Paris last night, an unexpected front row guest - LVMH heiress Delphine Arnault - caused a lot of chatter. Arnault, who is the second largest shareholder in LVMH after her father Bernard, is not known for staying out late, much less for a show which started an hour late at 10 pm on a rainy Sunday night.

After the show, which she deemed, "Beautiful, amazing," Delphine went backstage to congratulate Gareth. The designer has recently been talking about making more wearable pieces, and Arnault's appearance could be more than coincidence. As the Telegraph reports, "The word is out that someone very big wants to harness his talent, because it could be just the spark to reignite a moribund menswear market." Grazia has heard from several sources that that "very big" someone is LVMH's Dior Homme, who is about to tap Pugh as a consultant.
