Dries Van Noten fall 2020


Then along comes a designer who designs with a collection that looks like a collection… imagine that!!

Unquestionably the runway is one that is rife with exquisite pieces rendered in lush and rich looking fabrications. This is not a collection for the faint of heart but it without a doubt a collection for those who truly understand there is a thing called fashion without billboards,  neon  signs,  endless intellectualizing about heinously ugly clothes, sound bytes and  all the bullshit that seems to permeate the business at this time in order to justify a lack of talent.

Dries is a fabric man which he certainly backs up in this collection but what he also fortifies is that there really are true creatives who design clothes reflecting their vision for their brand based on their instincts and not on some headline or speck of esoterica… you listening meatball?

The first viewing can be rather jolting but is upon dissection that you find the beauty and the the essence of both the brand and designer. The clothes speak for themselves, there is no further need to ramble on about them... if you understand the business and creative aspects of fashion then the images speak for themselves
