Dries Van Noten is not really a minimalist
or essentialist, especially if we mind his trademarks, like embroidery and
print. This time was different, with no embroidery, neither prints. All were
replaced by colors: yellows, pinks, blues and greens. There was a lot going on.
The runway score was a mix of rave, punk, skate and techno; and this
information should give you an idea of the collection. Rave renaissance on a
street would be a perfect title for it. Garments like coats, jeans jacket and
businessman shirt were purposely made ancient with dyed technique and then
acid-washed, aviator pants with zippers, safety belts, colorful fur boas,
frill-necked poet shirts, printed velvets, skater shorts and technical
sneakers.
A mix-match of everything that we normally see on streets, like in Paris
for example. Streetwear always had and will influence designers in their
process of making a collection, styling, but never was as literal as it was
during this fashion week.
