Dries Van Noten Spring 2012 Fashion Show

Last season, DVN paraded sophisticated modern lads who were romantic in attitude but superstar in name. He channeled David Bowie through his mannequins and they were really chic lads. But just recently, Dries had his game face on with the navy blue palette. Yup, these are deep toned blues that are always mysterious but forever wearable. The main color is shocked with the ultra fascinating bolds of strong colors and thick stripe prints that have made a contemporary statement yet preserved that ideology that Dries is still on the prints.

Dries Van Noten Fall 2011 Collection

Inspired so much by David Bowie and rendered a production that is and will always be theatrical, Dries Van Noten presents a Fall 2011 collection that comes with some strings attached. From it, there’s the sense of elegance, sporty, and romanticism – one side fur lapel, patterned trousers, and suits that are to-die-for. It’s said to be an appreciation of Dries to Bowie but it seems that it’s just being beautiful in so many ways.

Dries Van Noten Spring 2011 Fashion Show

The lightest take of underground agenda, it was a spectacle of sophisticated collision of streetwear and tailored garments for Dries Van Noten. Intentionally-bleached denims and ink splotched cotton fabric agreeably fed the print-hungry fans a taste of satisfying substitute as the signature pieces were lightened up with faded twist.

Highlights: Bleached denim jackets and pants, ink splotched white shirts, military boots, knee-length cargo shorts, and double breasted coats and suits.

Dries Van Noten Fall 2010 Fashion Show

In case you were thinking of too much layered garments over the new offerings from Dries Van Noten, well you are probably wrong. The Belgian designer has just started his endeavor on mixing garments and set aside signature prints for a while, well that's just plain observation. Pulling off great outerwear pieces like quilted jackets with stripes on arm sleeves, skin toned crew neck with houndstooth sleeves paired with puffer vest looked insanely awesome. The collection still goes with favorable Dries Van Noten Khaki and Navy colors along with cropped pants and sophisticated brogues. Each model rocks a portable speaker which actually provides music on the runway. Cool eh?
