Even when they\u2019re simple, everyday kind of hats, they\u2019re unique,<\/em>\u201d explains Maria Grazia Chiuri, artistic director of womenswear at Dior.<em> \u201cI also remember my first Dior haute couture collection<\/em> [spring\/summer 2017],<em>\u201d<\/em> she continues.<em> \u201cAfter the show we threw a party inspired by the Bal des T\u00eates<\/em> [a sumptuous ball put on by Baron Alexis de Red\u00e9 at the H\u00f4tel Lambert in 1956]. <em>Stephen created extraordinary pill boxes for us. That was when I really understood what that hat is all about.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;For Jones, whose enthusiasm for his work is infectious, the style of a hat is of no importance as long as it pushes the boundaries of the milliner\u2019s art, whether through volume, proportion, materials or ornaments. \u201c<em>A hat is a visible accessory that gives character and personality,<\/em>\u201d says the Cheshire-born designer, an origin he shares with Lewis Carroll, inventor of the famous Mad Hatter in&nbsp;<i>Alice in Wonderland&nbsp;<\/i>(1869).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In a fashion industry constantly seeking novelty, Jones\u2019s exceptional longevity cannot only be explained by his overflowing imagination and unrivalled knowhow. <em>\u201cHis hats are creative, iconoclastic and revolutionary,\u201d<\/em> explains Adrian Joffre, a long-time friend of <strong>Stephen Jones<\/strong>&nbsp;and the co- founder, with Japanese designer&nbsp;Rei Kawakubo, of the concept store Dover Street Market. <em>\u201cHe breaks the rules, but at the same time respects the traditions. His work is like him: extravagant, magnificent and very particular.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em>Jones himself has no problem admitting that he likes to play with contradiction. He first attended High Wycombe College of Art before studying fashion at London\u2019s celebrated Central Saint Martins, from where he graduated in 1979.<em> \u201cWhen I was a student, I loved leafing through old editions of Vogue. In the 70s, easy-to- wear wardrobes and rustic styles were in fashion. I hated all that. But I loved the photos of gowns by Balenciaga, Dior and Jacques Fath taken by Henry Clarke, so full of elegance and refinement \u2013 angular poses and a graphic aesthetic, which for me you also find in Johnny Rotten, the Sex Pistols singer, with this total desire to be the best and the most energetic. It\u2019s an extreme attitude that I find very glamorous and which contrasted with all the comfortable clothing fashionable at the time.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\r\n\n            <div class=\"wp-block-cb-carousel cb-single-slide\" data-slick=\"{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1,&quot;speed&quot;:300,&quot;arrows&quot;:true,&quot;dots&quot;:false,&quot;autoplay&quot;:false,&quot;autoplaySpeed&quot;:3000,&quot;infinite&quot;:true,&quot;responsive&quot;:[{&quot;breakpoint&quot;:769,&quot;settings&quot;:{&quot;slidesToShow&quot;:1,&quot;slidesToScroll&quot;:1}}]}\">\n            \n                    <div class=\"wp-block-cb-slide\">\n                    \n                    <figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a4024c4c74e9&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a4024c4c74e9\" class=\"wp-block-image size-medium-large wp-lightbox-container\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/numero.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/GettyImages-1441066124-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-0\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button>\n                    <figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A headdress by Stephen Jones for the Dior haute couture Spring-Summer 2004 show by John Galliano and Stephen Jones.

To jolly up their endless nights out at the celebrated Blitz club, Jones made outrageous hats for his flatmates \u2013 the pop star Boy George and the artist Grayson Perry \u2013 as well as for his friends, the French designer Jean&nbsp;Paul Gaultier and the band Duran Duran. In 1980, Steve Strange, the club\u2019s owner, offered to finance <strong>Stephen Jones<\/strong>\u2019s hat shop in Covent Garden, and just two years later Princess Diana called on his knowhow. After that, all the avant-garde creators swore by his eye and talent, from Rei Kawakubo, founder of Comme des Gar\u00e7ons, and Jean Paul Gaultier, to the equally audacious Thierry Mugler, the very punk Vivienne Westwood and of course the fanciful John Galliano. When the latter was appointed artistic director at Dior, in 1996, Jones became the first British milliner to make hats and head- dresses for the illustrious brand. <em>\u201cProbably the most exceptional piece I ever made was for Dior\u2019s spring-summer 2004 couture show, designed by John Galliano and inspired by ancient Egypt. It was an enormous gilded column, 1 m high, worn by Erin O\u2019Connor,\u201d<\/em> he recalls.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\n            <div class=\"wp-block-cb-carousel cb-single-slide\"

other artistic directors have come and gone at Dior since Galliano, <strong>Stephen Jones<\/strong> remains a faithful Dior collaborator, a sentinel even, who continues its traditions. <em>\u201cStephen has been the milliner to Christian Dior for 25 years \u2013 for me, he is the brand\u2019s oracle. He has absorbed all its facets, and all those of a couturier too,<\/em>\u201d declares <strong>Kim Jones<\/strong>. His words are borne out by the 2020 book<strong> Dior<\/strong> brought out on Stephen Jones\u2019s hats, as well as the exhibition on his work the brand organized at its Granville museum in 2022. Rare are the milliners who have achieved such recognition uniquely for their savoir-faire (Chanel, who started out as a milliner, achieved fame as a couturier). In 2009, Jones cocurated the exhibition <em>Hats: An Anthology<\/em> at London\u2019s Victoria and Albert Museum, with a title that referenced <strong>Cecil Beaton<\/strong>\u2019s 1971 show <em>Fashion: An Anthology.<\/em>&nbsp;These past five years have been Jones\u2019s most prolific yet. Besides his two annual collections under his own name and those he does for Dior, he has worked with <strong>Schiaparelli<\/strong>, <strong>Moschino<\/strong>,<strong> Rochas, Thom Browne<\/strong>, <strong>Marc Jacobs<\/strong> and the British designer<strong> Grace Wales Bonner<\/strong>, as well as on special projects for <strong>Rihanna, Lady Gaga <\/strong>and <strong>Kylie Jenner<\/strong> \u2013 a list that is far from exhaustive. <em>\u201cI\u2019ve worked with many designers over the course of my career, but never so many as right now. Each time, I look at it as a conversation between people who are very different. They nourish me and I nourish them. I have my own per- sonal vision of beauty and ugliness, and they have theirs. Do I necessarily have to defend my point of view? No, with them I want to learn, I find the child in me again,<\/em>\u201d analyses Jones. Here we have the secret to his exceptional career: a radical vision of fashion coupled with a deep knowledge of its techniques and methods; an insatiable curiosity paired with a sincere and heartfelt modesty.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><em>www.stephenjonesmilllinery.com&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stephen Jones, the milliner of celebrities and
