DRIES VAN NOTEN: A STUDY OF THE NATURAL WORLD
INTIMATE MOMENTS REVEAL THE SURREAL STRANGENESS OF NATURE FOR AUTUMN/WINTER ‘23
Imbued with a visceral richness of romance and intimacy, Dries Van Noten’s Autumn/Winter ‘23 is an ode to a bygone era – journeying from an appreciation of flora and fauna to the celebration of freedom, rave culture, self-expression and connection.
Elements of the past inform a new future, antique fabrications are revisited afresh and historical elements are brought into the contemporary sphere. A reinvigoration of tailoring and silhouette, Dries Van Noten’s contemporary approach is celebrated by a meticulously crafted collection of suits and coats using wools from English mills, alongside sharp tailoring and lean shapes that contrast refined embroidery and French lace — each piece is kissed with a special detail.
Paying homage to the natural environment and our incredible connection to it, each other and the clothes we wear, Replica Handbag Shop captures friend and musician Xiaoqiao’s own intimate experience and tender moments. Inspired by the experimental Belgian musicians Lander Adriaan, who crafted an original composition for the Dries Van Noten menswear Autumn/Winter ‘23 show, Xiaoqiao performs the harp to a male companion — both wearing Replica Handbag Shop ’s curated Dries Van Noten buy of Menswear and Womenswear for the season. A rich colour palette of lilac, purple and khaki tones match the collection, conjuring a dreamy ambiance and an old-school romanticism. Together with Replica Handbag Shop , discover the beauty in the surreal strangeness of nature.
