Dream David Downtown, Dior Couture, 2015

David Downtown, Dior Couture, 2015

In the world of fashion illustration, few people are as revered as David Downtown. Over the course of his dazzling career, he has captured such famous names as Paloma Picasso, Catherine Deneuve and Cate Blanchett, as well as couture looks for Chanel, Schiaparelli and Christian Dior. This eye-catching illustration depicts Look 44 from the Dior Spring 2015 Couture show at Paris Fashion Week. In this collection, Raf Simons, Dior’s then creative director, paid his respects to David Bowie. ‘He’s a chameleon, able to reinvent himself,’ Simons enthused. Featuring graphic silhouettes, pops of vibrant colour and unlikely materials such as plastic, this landmark collection revealed Simons to be just as adaptable as his hero.
