Robert Pattinson was disappointed that the Edwardian collar that came with the Dior invitation was not required wear for entry into the show.
The longtime Dior ambassador joked that he did think he was supposed to wear it when it first arrived. Instead he sported a more casual jeans and blazer look for Jonathan Anderson‘s sophomore men’s outing at the house. (Still, there were plenty of guests in the audience that did take the invitation’s sartorial direction.)
“What I’m wearing reminds me so much of the kind of stuff I was wearing when I was about 18. It’s, like, almost disturbing, but it’s also kind of cool to see it all brought back. It’s funny because me and Jonathan grew up in the same era. This is very nostalgic,” he said.
