— February 14, 2012 — Fashion
In this series of captures from the new Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2012 line showcases the collections's new range of sophisticated suited separates with looks that are modernly Mennonite-inspired.

The shoot and commercial which stars model Chris Beek and was shot by Willy Vanderperre and features the rising fashion star in what look to be a European hotel mezzanine posing with an antique, wooden chair.

Structured, monochromatic suit pieces are depicted in interesting compositions and paired with stylish shades, providing for a modern, sophisticated look that also makes references to zoot suits from the past. So if you're looking for some formal wear of the future -- or at least the present anyway -- the Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2012 collection is ready to suit you up in contemporary style.
