The world of luxury fashion is no stranger to collaboration, and recent years have seen some of the most dynamic team-ups ever-many involving Kim Jones himself. From his time at Dior, he's partnered with a roster of artists and designers, adding bold, artistic twists to Dior's classical French elegance. Notable collaborations with artists like Daniel Arsham and Hajime Sorayama brought surreal, futuristic vibes, while this year's cultural crossover with Lewis Hamilton as guest designer brought an athletic edge to the fashion house's collection. But Jones's 2018 work with American artist KAWS is one for the books, as it marked the beginning of Jones's creative reign at Dior.
