I have nothing personal against Raf Simons and I recognize his talent of creating minimalistic fashion. But position at Dior is quite different from what he usually does. Dior is all about luxury and pompousness. Raf Simon doesn’t fit in at all. Unless Dior is going to change…
However, talks between Raf Simons and Dior seems to be pretty serious, so probably in a couple of seasons we would see the new Dior. The 43-year-old designer is currently busy working for Jil Sander. And according to reports he has recently extended his contract with the brand for an unknown duration. So, Spring 2012 couture and Fall 2012 fashion collections for Christian Dior will still be created by Bill Gaten.
