Impossible not to admire the beautiful fabrics used in the Dries Van Noten Fall 2015 collection.
I hesitated before blogging on this collection because it has been so widely covered in the mainstream press and fashion blogs that you are probably over-familiar with it already but beauty must have its’ place here and as they say on Style.com:
It was part of the magic of this collection that … oppositions comfortably coexisted: rich, poor, salon, street, tradition, iconoclasm. Beauty as a gesture of defiance. Deluxe Bohemia is Van Noten’s default setting, and here it was honed to a tee. The gilding, the brocade, and the sequins brought the glamour. The chino, the canvas, the baggy shorts were the ground. So we had the blissful conjunction of a cloud-patterned sweatshirt paved in sequins (ending in a fringe of big, shiny paillettes) and what might best be described as combat culottes.
Gorgeous, wearable eclectic style. Ā Images of my my favourite looks are here, above and below. Ā Do click the linkĀ to see moreĀ Dries Van Noten Fall 2015.
