Robert Pattinson Makes History as the New Face of Dior Homme

Dior Homme is designed for the stylish and sophisticated man of today, so its no surprise that Robert Pattinson has been chosen to star in their latest advertising shots. Last week, the high-profile fashion house announced that he would be the face of their Autumn/Winter 2016 ready-to-wear campaign which means that Robert has made history, becoming the first ever celebrity face of the brand.

Robert isn’t new to the Dior club – the British actor has been the muse of their fragrance line since 2012, but this is the first time he’s been involved in the fashion side of the business.

Photographed by the legendary Karl Lagerfeld, the moody black and white images feature Robert looking as suave and smouldering as ever as he showed off the latest collection designed by Kris Van Assche.

In the first image, Robert shows off a sneak preview of the new Dior Homme menwear collection as he sports a shirt, tie and anorak combo.

Of course, as eyewear aficionado’s, what really captured our attention here at SelectSpecs was the photograph of Robert looking effortlessly cool in a pair of Dior Homme sunglasses. Lounging on a sofa, he looked like a modern-day James Dean as he modeled a smart checked shirt and trousers, a slick-back hair-do and a pair of stylish aviator shades from the Dior Homme eyewear collection.
