HEDI SLIMANE: Perpetuating the fashion-phile stereotype one crazy (albeit) skinny waistline at a time

THE SLIM-MAN STORY . . .
DON'T say the fashion set don't suffer for their art: to fit into his super-slim Dior suits Hedi Slimane apparently has to live on a diet of baby food. Speaking to the Daily Telegraph's Celia Walden, a snoop close to the designer confessed: "Hedi's diet consists of baby food. He doesn't like to do too much digesting, so it's the obvious option. His favourite flavour is chicken, but he won't say which brand he prefers." And while Hedi's flaks are happy to confirm the rumours, they're also banned from disclosing whether it's Cow & Gate or Heinz he prefers for his lunch. "Yes, we know about the baby food. But you want us to tell you which brand he prefers? We are not prepared to say anything on that subject," one explained. - VOGUE(UK)



For those who are unawares as to who Hedi Slimane is, check out my brief recap below:

Hedi Slimane was, until recently, the designer for Dior Homme. He and Dior parted ways recently because they could not find common ground when re-negotiating his contract. It's been compared to when Jil Sander left the Prada Group, except I think that Hedi might have been more of a drama queen/ had ridiculous demands.. I mean the freaking tard eats baby food.. being a diva doesn’t even begin to describe him.

He’s being succeeded by Kris Van Assche who actually used to apprentice with Slimane at Dior a while back.








Ps- van assche is one fine piece of lanky fashion-man assche.
