    So he took these shots before the show?? Or was it at a park down the street. You know a Coachella photo when you see it. Because if you’ve been there you can smell the photo, feel the heat and hear the music. What I feel is “Lets take this in the VIP section far away from what’s really going on.” or better yet lets shoot the day before the concert…. lame

    Garbage. He’s no visionary. Oh wait, he’s chronicling the heroin chic minus the needle era. GTFOH. Garbajaso wish he’d go away and DIAF

    nothing special here. i do have to agree with the other comments posted. but the man still has a lot of us squeezing into our black 19cm jeans even well after he left dior homme. his influence on most of our style is more than what we’d like to admit.

    hedi slimane did some great work at dior homme. he has also captured some cool moments with his camera, but how many pictures of skinny,white, underage, pretentious hipsters is he going to take before everyone realizes that hes not really a visionary?
