【Product Details】
An early archive piece from the 2008 Fall/Winter collection by Kris Van Assche for Dior Homme.
This collection inherited the sharp, mode aesthetic of the Hedi Slimane era while pursuing more sculptural and architectural tailoring.

This collection features "military/uniform details" such as epaulettes, double-breasted closures, and shoulder pads throughout. Vogue described it as "evoking... 'a solemn procession of heroes from a Shakespearean play'."
This was also Kris Van Assche's first full-fledged Fall/Winter collection, a piece from a time when he steered towards a serene and structured military style while retaining the sharpness of the Hedi era.

A double-breasted coat in a military officer style with epaulettes.
It uses heavy melton wool material and reconstructs the classic officer coat in a modern way.
*The runway look shown is a similar model from the same collection (with details common to this product).

【Condition】
Overall good condition.
There are slight scuffs on the lining and cuffs, but there is no damage that would hinder wear.
There is some fraying on the string part of the front button, but this does not affect wear.
Also, there is a repair history on the lower right of the inner Dior tag (see photo 12).
