Joe Jonas Wears Dior to Camp Rock 2 Premiere

Filed under: Apparel, Celebrity Shopping, Men's Style

Joe Jonas turned up on the red carpet at the "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam" movie premiere in New York City last night wearing a fashionable Dior Homme suit. The Dior Homme black wool suit is unusual, in that it has a slashed lapel blazer (as seen on Joe Jonas on the far right). The premiere was held at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center; "Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam", which features all three of the Jonas Brothers, will air on September 3 on the Disney Channel.

Jonas isn't the only celebrity donning Dior duds of late. Kanye West and his Rosewood Movement are big fans of Dior Homme, too. West and his Rosewood pals have been seen wearing a Dior Homme Black Classic Skinny Suit (as reported by Luxist yesterday). West's suit is sold in Beverly Hills and New York City boutiques and retails for $2,200. It is available during every season, unlike the one worn by Jonas, which is Spring 2009 Runway and not available anymore (Dior isn't doing slashed lapels this season).

The Rosewood Movement is a fashion initiative in which its followers wear the same sharply tailored suits. It stems from the Rosewood Civil Rights Movement, but in this case is meant to raise the level of sophistication within the rap and hip hop worlds.

Kanye West and his Rosewood Movement Now Wearing Dior Homme

Leading by example is being taken a step even further. Rap singer and record producer, Kanye West, is apparently requiring everyone associated with his G.O.O.D. music distribution company to dress alike---something he is calling the "Rosewood Movement". West and his posse, which at times includes fellow musician and G.O.O.D. client John Legend, are seen at events dressed in matching attire.

The Rosewood Movement is a fashion initiative in which Kanye and his group wear the same sharply tailored suits. It stems from the Rosewood Civil Rights Movement, but in this case is meant to raise the level of sophistication within the rap and hip hop worlds. Kanye is known to be a fashion trend setter, so this is meant to influence his followers to dress a bit sharper.

The current dress code is a Dior Homme Black Classic Skinny Suit (as seen on West in this photo). It is sold in Beverly Hills and New York City boutiques and retails for $2,200. It is available during every season.

West has explained in interviews that the Rosewood Movement is much more than just a fashion statement. It also includes good manners, no profanity in public, "calling your grandmother" and "taking care of your kids."

The Rosewood Movement launched in July and other suits West's group have worn include Lanvin and Club Monaco. Dior Homme will continue to be the suit of choice until further notice.

The classic look works well for West.
