Dries Van Noten offers a new men’s collection filled with poetry and multiple references…For his new men’s collection, Dries Van Noten invited us to the south of Paris, to an industrial workshop belonging to the RATP (Parisian transport company). Between the old iron lines on the floor and the metal beams, the Belgian designer contrasts his wardrobe with poetry, love (with an acoustic version of Ronettes’ “Be my baby”) and exoticism. Silver embroidery and trimmings are applied to coats, plaid shirts and military parkas. Pants become Bermuda shorts and even kilts, with skirts in velvet, brocade and thick cotton. Quilted silk kimono jackets take on warm colors. Tuxedos in white, then black, a nod to Yves Saint Laurent, made a comeback. Dries multiplies references as much as he enjoys mixing materials, playing with superimpositions and offering a reinvented wardrobe every season. Note the reflective lines on certain parkas in reference to firefighter uniforms, and the many reversible pieces.
