Kris Van Assche makes monogram cool again with Dior Homme Darklight

Named the Dior Homme Darklight collection, this season sees an unprecedented makeover of the historical Dior monogram by its designer Kris Van Assche – one that buzzed over the entire men’s fashion world.

Taking the iconic monogram and reworking it in a canvas of black and grey, which results in a 3D illusionary effect, Van Assche has pushed boundaries yet again for men’s wardrobe.

Featured prominently in the Dior Homme Fall 2016 runway, the monogram makes it mark on many of Dior Homme’s leather goods with accents of red tartan motifs and unconventional embroideries including backpacks, duffle bags and shoes.

A juxtaposition of dark and light (like its collection name), this coveted collection fuses the notion of “street” influences with the elegant and classic DNA of the house of Dior (see video below for the full collection).

The result? A spectacular menswear accessories collection that enhances the men’s wardrobe without overplaying with flamboyance.

So feast on this spectacle and mark it on your wishlist for Christmas. While you’re at it, we’ll be hurrying down to its Suria KLCC boutique for a quick pick-me-up.

That embroidered monogram bag is most definitely selling like hotcakes. We already call dibs on it!
