I agree. Holts' sale doesn't have many pieces left already (at least not compared to their sale in January), and the discount hasn't even reached 70% off. It won't get much better than what is available currently.
Hmm might have to sneak away tomorrow to check it out maybe.... [emoji848]
Outfit today with my Dior Homme briefcase and my Jeans Paul Gaultier summer shirt from years ago that feels like nothing on when I wear it!
This is the first time I'm posting in Dior. I have to say that I'm a bit obsessed with the Dior Homme Men's SS18 collection. I save my fund and invest in a fair amount of luxury RTW every year and I have to say I really want to go to Dior tomorrow and ask the guys there to give me a holla as soon as they know more details on the pieces they are getting. The shirts, the shorts and the blazers on the show are amazing!
You just reminded me to check the collection. I forgot yesterday when I came home.
Those proportions and combinations in the show are very interesting! The look below is quite unexpected: Short shorts with a blazer! I was already thinking of experimenting with a blazer and dress shorts. That's already quite "out there" for me. And now there's this.

I'm kind of digging that ribbony thingamabob... (being the technical term of course, ahem...)

Blazer + shorts is a cute combo. It has always been a very preppy look.
Here are some of the bags from the new SS2018 collection:
This one is my favourite. I love the atelier ribbon detailing around the bag. Not sure if I need another briefcase considering that the one I have is quite similar (in the same awesome grained calfskin) minus the ribbon. The ribbon charm is awesome, though! I hope it's available for sale separately so I can get it for my bags.
The duffle version is quite nice, too. Definitely less formal than carrying a briefcase around, so this will pair nicely with more looks.
Very cute min-duffle, but too small for me. I gravitate towards large bags.
Very nice monogram duffle. I love the print on it.
These bags feature the artwork of François Bard. The prints are cool, but I prefer them in leather over nylon (or woven canvas).
What do you guys think of the bags from this collection?

I love the mini-duffle and the atelier ribbon charm! Not sure I need another mini duffle since I have a Faure Le Page Le 35 MM...
I love the travel bags. For some reason though, most guys I know purchase Louis Vuitton travel bags or Gucci over Dior
I think LV and Gucci are more well-known names for men, compared to Dior. In fact, even Boss and Armani seem more popular, at least when men talk about "brand names", than Dior.
Yes I never understood why. I guess because there has never been a staple or long term Dior mens bag as there has been for Gucci and Louis Vuitton. Dior suits for men are well known though for quality with many guys.
This is the problem I have with Dior. I get they like to change there styles etc. But it would be great if they implemented more monogram bags for men and make them a staple in there collections... Like Gucci has gg pattern & Louis Vuitton has LV pattern/ checked boxes.
It would help them a lot in terms of branding!!
Although I suppose it is good to be different in ways too.
They are currently expanding their monogram bag range, as there is a shift again towards logo fabrics among several menswear and womenswear brands. The new monogram bags look interesting, as they have prints on top of the monogram (like Gucci and LV). The new monogram also feels a lot more durable than the older one. I had some older pieces and I have now sold all of them because the coated monogram canvas is literally a cotton canvas with plastic coating, and the plastic coating rubs off easily at areas of friction, exposing the brown canvas beneath.
