[Dior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-and-stone-island) introduces its Pre-Fall 2019 menswear collection designed by Kim Jones with a beautifully captured lookbook shot by Steven Meisel. The range spotlights a selection of outerwear goods, suits, trousers, footwear, shirts, accessories, and more.

The seasonal pieces made its original debut back in November last year during a Kim Jones presentation, with the show set with [metallic walls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set) and colorful laser beams. The editorial follows the same [sci-fi theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-and-mad-architects) with collaborative efforts by Hajime Sorayama, a Japanese artist. The campaign follows his work and own iteration of the fashion house's logo reimagined to be a metallic version with a hypnotic eye replacing the "O." This is also seen adorning a selection of fashion designs as well, including the turtleneck sweater, saddle bag, and trench coat.
