Green waxed Dior Hedi “SHARP NOTATION” jeans.

Hedi began his career as a consultant for luxury brands under Jean-Jacques Picart before he was hired as a menswear designer by Pierre Berge for Yves Saint Laurent.

In 2000, Slimane became the creative director of Dior Homme. Hedi’s final collection at Dior, Autumn/Winter 2007, is remembered as one of his most iconic. Titled Navigate after the song by the British band These New Puritans, the collection is widely considered Hedi’s magnum opus, presenting a more mature and refined perspective. Many of the collection’s pieces, including the combat boots and patchwork denim, remain highly coveted by collectors today.
