Anyone have any photos of Dior Homme suits?

[rirawin]

I was wondering whether or not people have any photos of the following Dior Homme suits, i.e. views from behind. They don't have to be catwalk photos, as you can see I already have those.

N.B. The photos are hosted on my webspace.

If anyone could point me in the right direction, or could either PM me with links to more photos, as I understand that hotlinking off other sites isn't allowed here or email them to me that'd be greatly appreciated.

what is it you want to see from the back of the suit? it's pretty plain with no flourishes, the pants only have one back pocket that's about it

[shagnscoob]

See whether they had any vents on the back... Just thinking whether those are sufficient enough to show a tailor to get replica of that suit done that's all

if you get it done id like to see pics, im thinking of doin the same

random but...dude looks like michael jackson in the last 2 pictures.

Anyone know anything about the pricing on Dior Homme suits / quality? I really like the cut of the suit, but I've heard the quality is just so-so, but I don't know how much they cost so that could balance it out.

P.S. Where do they sell these?

Saks Fifth, Dior Homme boutiques, Barneys in NYC (I think), Japan, etc...

the suits are just under 1500, there is one vent on the back of the jacket, mine at least was. The quality of construction is more than so-so I'd say about on par with most suits in the 800-1000 range, except for the fact that it's pretty hard to find a suit cut that way, which is the appeal obviously.

I assume a great tailor could replicate it for considerably less

I think the DH suits are roughly $1500-2000? That's about what any basic off-the-peg suit from a big name costs at retail.

Dior is pretty much all about the cut/construction with a mind for fit, isn't it? He isn't really using supremely lux fabrics nor does he really care too much about shelf life of these things. In any case, unless you're playing sports in them, it's pretty hard to wear out a suit before it goes out of style on you.

I like looking at these DH suits too and really am holding myself back from buying one as I do need a new suit, but they're just a tad slim and wonder if it's just a bit too trendy. I'd feel it's only proper to go the whole distance and get the small-collared shirts and the skinny ties, throw in a nice new pair of shoes and it becomes a whole wardrobe re-design for me, rather than a simple addition.

I think most of these DH suits and jackets are double-vented in the back, am I wrong?

^^Mine is not vented and Im pretty sure its the same as the one in the first pic. Its a silk/wool blend and the cut is great high armholes, peak lapels, very slim, etc.

Post pics if you go through with this as I have also thought about doing a similar thing to get the look with out the DH prices.

My girl just went back to Japan and took her digicam with her, but if I can get my hands on one I'll post some pics for you later.

I just got a size 48eu suit yesterday in silver, that I'm going to have to sell because it's slightly too big.

As it's been said, they have a single vent and one pocket on the back of the pants.

LOL. that grossed me out.

where'd you get it and how much would you be looking to get for it?

[poly800rock]

that grey suit is amazing, although i don't really like the one button suit.

it's much easier to get the two button version luckily

[djrajio]

I own a one-button version of the above suits in black. There are no vents in the back.

[TheGrapist]

I dunno, I'd have to figure out what's a fair price based on legit eBay auctions and such. But here are some pics:

I have the grey one in black as well and mine aren't vented. AFAIK, they went single vent as of f/w 05 but I could be wrong. That's the first season I've seen a vent in at boutiques, at least.

[Astérix]

I know nothing about suits but I love this one as well as a few from the new collection...

Wow...400 posts!

[Servo2000]

^^^^^

The cut on those pants is fantastic. I'd be interested to see whether any of these are in my size, as I'm slim enough, but a little on the short side.

[Astérix]

There have been some on ebay (not the same color...the grey version), brand new in a sz 46 that have been less than $1000.

Dior Homme makes the best ready to wear suit out there in my opinion. The one I have is from VOTC, it's a black wool 2-button suit with lurex thread woven in for a subtle glittery effect (the trousers also have this treatment)...center vent, skinny notch lapels that elongate the torso, fully canvassed. I think for the price of a DH suit, it's the best you can get outside of bespoke. The retail price was $2,195. The newer suits seem to be considerably cheaper but I haven't seen them in person so i can't comment. There were some half-lined suits from the current summer collection that were well-fitting.

It's hard for me to justify a Dior Homme suit when I can get one from Costume National on sale/the internet at half the price of a discounted Dior suit

True, but how's the fit? I've never looked up Costume National suits. Are their runway shows similiar to the ready-to-wears?

[macuser3of5]

Just a tad wider than Dior Homme off the rack, in my experience. A different kind of cut, though, not as straight-up-and-down narrow nor is the jacket as high cut, it's shaped more for a 'muscular slim/lean' body; fits me better. It's a great slim silhouette, like all of Costume National's stuff. Dior isn't the only label that makes slim clothing

The runway shows are pretty lame, I don't like the styling at all. Same clothes as you get in the stores, though.
