Belgian designer known for the delicacy and poetry of his creations, Dries Van Noten interprets menswear in a romantic, bohemian way for winter 2013/2014.
Warm tones in shades of beige and camel, floral and paisley motifs intermingle in this relaxed country collection. Like his Belgian compatriot Walter Van Beirendonck, Dries Van Noten’s menswear is full of nods to women’s fashion.
The V-neck is one of the basics of this collection, found sloppy on shirts or structured on sweaters, and echoes the kimono that opens the show.
Mustard and orange tones also feature at Dries Van Noten, breaking with the effortless chic of the garments as a whole.
With brocade coats and buckle boots, the Dries Van Noten man is a relaxed yet demanding dandy. He even dares to mix prints in certain looks (a trend also seen on women).
The suit is also reinterpreted to exude a sense of “cool” that seems to be the common thread running through this Dries Van Noten men’s fall-winter collection.
