DRIES VAN NOTEN: MAN VS. FLORAL







DRIES VAN NOTEN: PRET-A-PORTER HOMMES PRINTEMPS-ETE 2014

Dries Van Noten is a designer who's dexterity surpasses most. Responsible for the deconstructed plaid movement and winning over fashions brat-pack with his Spring 2013 ready-to-wear line, Van Noten today underpinned his investigation of the masculine vs. feminine engagement in the reverse order, with musings taken direct from his womenswear. Van Noten's diffusion of gender politics reached Wuthering Heights while his congruent faculties of print, texture and cutting of cloth served as inroads to Van Noten's masterclass in eclecticism. Hedged in a print-garden of draping, sheer fabrics, paper-bag waists and luxurious smoking gowns, Van Noten's brand of masculinity is reserved for only the manliest of men. And how the dandies will oscillate in their finery. Remarkable. Irreverent. Dries.
