Dries Van Noten: Say it ain’t so!
A sad week for Dries heads. It’s just been announced Dries Van Noten is stepping down from his namesake brand after 38 years and the fashion world is in mourning.
A thoroughly nice (and normal!) guy who respects women, a brilliantly consistent designer who charms through clever juxtapositions, not to mention a fabulous colourist, champion of diverse beauty and gardener extraordinaire!
My personal highlights – his 2014 exhibition at the Arts Decoratifs Museum, the beyond fantastic illustration collab with artist Gill Button, his always wonderful casting and my 5 inch snakeskin boots. Thanks Dries.

It is such sad news. There’s no other designer like DVN imo. Instantly recognisable use of colour etc – I need to watch that documentary again…
