Dior’s dramatic Pre-Fall Men 2023 runway show at the Giza pyramids complex is continuing to get attention in the international fashion press this morning: The event, which showcased the work of English menswear designer Kim Jones, featured 75 models trekking through the desert beside the pyramids, and drew high profile guests including Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, British model Naomi Campbell and others. “Bagging Egypt, ancient and modern, was quite a diplomatic flourish,” Vogue writes in its coverage of the show. Fashion industry journal Women’s Wear Daily (WWD) also covered the event.
Also getting attention: The fiance of a US-Egyptian dual national arrested in UAE is voicing concern over his possible extradition to Egypt following his criticism of Egyptian authorities ahead of the COP27 summit last month, according to Reuters.
