One legendary photographer, plus another, equally legendary vampire equals very attractive Dior campaign, it’s just basic maths guys…
It seems the star of Tenet and Robsessed has taken a stylish break from the filming of The Batman (Matt Reeves) to don several offerings from Kim Jones’ SS21 Dior Men’s collection – and we’re certainly not mad about it. With legendary photographer David Sims behind the lens, a stubbly R-Patz turns it out in double-breasted formalwear, fitted with jagged lapels and a thick buttoned breast strap from the ‘Modern Tailoring’ collection.
Elsewhere Pattinson dons thick chunky knit jumpers worthy of the top spot on our Christmas list, emblazoned with the house’s signature ‘CD’ logo while holding a giant oblique-print monogram saddlebag like a newborn baby – bringing new meaning to Kate Bush’s “If I only could/I’d make a deal with God/And I’d get him to swap our places” lyric… After dramatically increasing our heartrates in thick cashmere coats or being subject to a communal wraith of envy in Jones’ internet-breaking B27 sneakers, we think it’s safe to say Pattinson makes the perfect Dior poster boy.
