Dior Homme - The Wanderer


 Golden cornfields set the stage for Dior Homme‘s draped and dramatic silhouettes of fall/winter 2011. Channeling the mysterious and possibly paranormal side of suburbia, the campaign film features model Victor Nylander experiencing a violent possession by a demonic (but somewhat sartorial) scarecrow.
 The Wanderer evokes feelings of loneliness and isolation despite cloaking itself in dapper Dior threads. Nylander’s fragile beauty, combined with erratic bodily movements that play victim only to the wind, proves to be quite disturbing when juxtaposed against the edge of civilization. The monotonous violin drones throughout the film, cementing the sombre mood to the already monochromatic aesthetics of Dior Homme.
Shot by Willy Vanderperre and conceived by Dior Homme’s artistic director Kris Van AsscheThe Wanderer is the product of two Belgian creatives who are at the forefront of today’s fickle fashion industry.
