Raf Simons' costume design return

Raf Simons has returned to costume design.

The Christian Dior creative director will make the costumes for Sigourney Weaver and Isabelle Huppert in their upcoming film project, 'Body Art'.

Sigourney told a WWD reporter: ''Isabelle plays a body artist. ''I play a journalist, like you - so I'm studying you.''

Both actresses were in the front row of his Dior Couture show earlier this week.

The film - helmed by Italian director Luca Guadagnino - is based on the 2001 Don DeLillo novel of the same name, and tells the story of a woman's battle with grief after her husband commits suicide.

It isn't the first time that Raf has been involved with film production by Guadagnino as the designer created the wardrobe for Tilda Swinton in the director's previous hit film, 'This Is Love', which gained an Oscar nomination for its costumes.

Earlier this month, it was revealed Raf has collaborated with Adidas to create a footwear collection.

Raf's retro-inspired trainers have five different models in a variety of colours, taking inspiration from ''signature Adidas high-end performance and running silhouettes.''

The exterior of the trainers are all-black and multi-colored silicone bubbles in rose, green, blue or burgundy are used to accentuate the shape of the shoe by creating visual depths.
