Jonathan Anderson presents Dior’s first Cruise collection show under his direction in Los Angeles, holding the event at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA). Multiple outlets describe the presentation as a film-like spectacle that draws on Hollywood themes, using visual references intended to evoke the look and mood of classic Hollywood escapism.

Both sources say the collection brings menswear and womenswear together in a single runway presentation for the first time in this Cruise format, integrating styles and pacing across genders rather than separating the groups. Coverage also characterizes the styling as highly polished and glam, with strong old-Hollywood references that are part of the show’s overall concept.

While the overall tone is described as polished and theatrical, one outlet adds that the show includes moments that feel more playful and slightly sleazy, contrasting with the more refined references. Overall, the reports converge on the show’s Los Angeles setting, its cinematic Hollywood framing, and the combined menswear-and-womenswear runway format.
