By staging the cruise collection for the storied French fashion brand he creative directs Christian Dior at the Brooklyn Navy Yard today, Raf Simons has geographically one-upped Alexander Wang, who, this past season, led the way to be the first major #NYFW designer to bring his runway show across the bridge from Manhattan to Brooklyn. Raf is just cool like that, bringing a younger, funner spirit to staid French fashion—plus, he probably wanted to make it easy for everybody's favorite style icon Rihanna to roll through looking pretty in pink, since she lives just across the water in Chinatown.
