Antwerp shopping

[faust]

I want to go so bad!!!! haha

In the future, will the Belgian members give us heads up? I would seriously consider going back to Antwerp during Ann's sale.

 

[Spacemiu]

I notice Bernhard's on the list yet he's in Paris now?? Does he still have an office in Antwerp?

I think it's becuase alot of his clothes are still made in Belgium.

 

[Scott]

Oh! I never thought about the fact that he still might have Belgian manufacturers.

Faust,just don't forget the cash as they don't take the plastic. I don't know about traveller's cheque's though.

Antwerp designer stock sales

Its an amazing time to be in Antwerp right now, a lot of great Belgian designers are holding their bi-annual stocksales and you can find a lot of great bargains...

Dries Van Noten was last friday, sadly I couldn't be there the first day so I probably missed out on a lot.. next wednesday I'll be camping in front of Stephan Schneider's stockpile so this will not happen again... Ann Demeulemeester is Thursday but I won't be able to make it..

The prices are pretty great, almost 70% reduction but of course these are all older collections, and some pieces have even been worn on the catwalk so you have to be careful that its in good condition!


Bruno Pieters
3, 4, 5th of November

Ann Demeulemeester
2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8th of November

Stephan Schneider
2, 3, 4, 5th of November

Can anyone add some dates to this list?

oh, i just replied to this in another thread started by kus. can one of the mods merge and delete this post? danke.

 

[faust]

Damn, I want to go so badly

 

[The Baron]

Now I know where I'm going on next year's winter vacation.

Unless the job I'm applying for in Antwerp comes through, that is.

WHAT?! I want one too!!!

 

[kuran]

Don't the do this outside Belgium? Surely..!

 

[Scott]

^They do have showroom-type sales in Germany,I know,but it's not the same as the individual stock sales in Antwerp. But certainly not in the US though.

Oh and I kindly asked our other Belgian member,Kus,if he'd do some reporting for us on the sales....and he's obliged....so soon we'll see some actual images

 

[kuran]

If people are interested I'll also take my camera to Schneider's... but I think I'll be too busy grabbing stuff!

 

[Scott]

^that'll be great,Kuran! The more the merrier. I think Kus is going to check out Pieters and Demeulemeester for us.

We have sample sales here, but they are rarely Belgian. There is one for Margiela.

 

[Buckwheat]

That's a busy schedule to shop with all those designers! Does Raf Simons have one too?
