Robert Pattinson's first ad for Dior Homme Fragrance is finally here, but you can barely see him--and sadly, he's not shirtless. Come on, Dior, we wanted to gaze longingly into R. Patz's eyes--or abs! {Dior's Twitter} Shoe designer Sam Edelman is expanding his empire from the feet up to produce a line of sportswear.
