Proving that you're not young and definitely not straight.
No straight guy, except a pandering celebrity would wear any of that - someone like Chalamet on a red carpet, assuming you want to agree that Chalamet is even straight.

R2, you're obviously not a woke person of today who knows about gender fluidity.
I can't see many of those clothes being worn outside of a gay nightclub.
It's been done before, OP. I remember a Karl Lagerfeld fashion show from a while back. I don't know if it was his own fashion line or Chanel. The models, wearing a lot of black, gathered on a raised turntable thing, and then at the end of the show, they all left one by one in a line. I remember at the end, the white turntable had quite a few black feathers on it that had come unglued and fallen off.

It's still alive and well in the conservative South and Midwest, just not in very liberal New York and California, where the U.S. fashion industry is located and currently run by 'progressives.'
NY and LA modeling agencies used to scout the South/Midwest for models, but ever since they went 'woke' in the past decade, they have a lot of contempt for those regions -- and traditional beauty and masculinity.
Part of 'woke-ness' IS anti-masculinity and anti-beauty.
Look at all the homely/obese/effeminate actors and models in Hollywood and fashion ads.

Even when male fashion models were more masculine in the past, their looks were often more quirky and edgy. They often didn't have traditionally handsome faces.

Silly, baggy clothes. I hated the oversize menswear of the ‘90s -early 00s. Mkes me think of my mom getting me an oversize suit I could “grow into.”
And I hate the skinny models wearing flapping clothes that make them look even thinner. Men want to look like men, not Timothy Chalamet.

Welcome to the world of androgyny. The ideal of traditionally masculine-looking men has disappeared, victim of the gender-fluid movement. Men looking like men is canceled, because it automatically connotes "toxic masculinity." If you object, thank the liberal SJWs. Traditional men are being phased out; get with the program. It's being forced down your throats, so swallow or spit.

Good lord people, its how Dior chose to present this particular collection. You're turning one show into the decline of mankind? There are other houses that are presenting their seasonal collections in the more traditional 'manly according to DL' parameters. And maybe Dior will choose to go ultra toxic masculinity in the next show.

Riiiiiight, R42. And very rich people will buy their clothes at Walmart and H&M. Yeah, that will happen. Haute couture may be a money loser but there aren't many fashion houses who put on couture shows in the first place. Sales of accessories, perfumes and cosmetics are doing just fine.

Dior is dumb as fuck if they don't take Galiano back after the somewhat disaster that is Maria Grazie. Maybe Kim Jones would step up his game for men's. I would love if Chanel snatched him up (they know how to deal with troublesome antisemites). This is his collection for Maison Margiela. Granted, it's haut couture, yes. But if none of it is going to be real or wearable, you might as well make it a fucking fantasy.

Dior Homme always reminds me of 2006-2009! I was in my mid to late 20's and I was obsessed with Hedi Slimane and Dior.
I loved the 2 darts on the upper back of all Dior shirts.
Slimane did the fucking IDENTICAL thing at Celine 15 years later-
I have TONS of pieces to this day of Slimane's Saint Laurent Surf and Sound collection from 2016 (I think that is what the collection was called) Even a backpack.

“Even when male fashion models were more masculine in the past, their looks were often more quirky and edgy. They often didn't have traditionally handsome faces.”
Bruce Hulse? Joe MacDonald? Bill Masi? All were the big male models when masculine was it and none were quirky. Go look at the Zoli roster in the 80s and 90s. Or Boss. The prevailing popular look at the time was categorical masculine handsomeness.
Now you have to look like you were born in a test tube to be considered model material.

skinny knobby-kneed white legs...if you're wearing shorts seems like your legs should be attractive.
The width of the pants and the "drape" on the shoes was welcome (to me). I know skinny pants is not fashionable any more, but some designers have wide, wide legs and high water hems, which look stupid on anyone who isn't 17 and skinny.

And might I add that male models from the 80s and 90s had to look the way they do so you wouldn't think they were dying from AIDS. That is when we were obsessed with the hyper masculine, muscular male form (Calvin Klein et al.) as subconscious, visual proof that someone wasn't sick. That's when every gay man starting blowing up to gorilla size proportions too. Nowadays it's not the same concern and the waif has returned.

Meh - a lot of boring traditional suits, overcoats and jackets with some 'surprise' shit that they'll never get any orders for in order to keep people from falling asleep.
Half of those 'shirts' looked like they just borrowed them from the women's line and threw them on the men.
It was a creative way to display all the looks at once to the buyers.
And the hair ties on the men? C'mon. This is why nobody cares about fashion shows anymore. It's all been done a 1000x over.
