Dries Van Noten F/W 11.12 Paris

Not my favourite collection from Dries, actually, the first half and the patterns he used are completely unappealing to me. I do like what happens since post #5, though. I guess I need to sleep with it, but this look on Sigrid already stole my heart :heart:

in the absence of the great mixing-is-matching marni aesthetic, we only have dries van noten willing to give us this undiluted, unfiltered mix of such wildly disparate influences and aesthetics all in the same garment. it truly boggles the mind to think how effortless he makes this level of creativity look. not only does he manage to touch on some of the strongest trends of the season (python, sixties, et al), but he remains almost renegade in the way that he clings to his aesthetic. newish designer houses like suno and duro should seriously take note of this as this is the way to put together print in a relevant and modern way.

I've never been a huge fan of the Dries aesthetic.

This collection is kind of interesting, but I just find all the styles and patterns a bit too much.
 
Nice!

Love the prints.

Would I wear some of the looks with the very clashing prints? Probably not.

But the ones where they are more complementary, or the pieces individually? Great.

Dries is the genious of the prints, we all know that, but I think this time he overdid a little bit, it got too mix & match for my taste, I don't know if it is because I was expecting so much of this collection since his amazing collection last season, but overall I don't like it.
 
the motif is like the Spring collection, The Batik motif combined with Van Noten's style
