Raf Simons Got Very Emotional Before His First Show for Dior



When Raf Simons took the helm as creative director of Dior in the summer of 2012, he faced a host of challenges that would give even the most self-assured among us some serious anxiety. For starters, Dior’s image had been tarnished the year before when then-designer John Galliano was accused of making anti-semitic remarks. In his absence, the brand stood on shaky, uncertain ground.

Topping it all off for the notoriously private designer? A film crew was present to record it all.
