Thank you so much for the article Lena.
I love his aesthetic. I too have that Surface issue that Faust mentioned. I'll look for it when I get home. It talked about his passion for gardening in that one too.

a man at the next table gets up and comes over to Van Noten. After begging his pardon, the man says, ''Are you Dries Van Noten?'' He then inquires if Van Noten's father plans to open his garden to the public soon. Van Noten says that he does. The man looks pleased. He remembers that the roses are particularly exceptional.

I love that part!

I liked that article a lot.

He reminds me of Issey Miyake. When I had met him after he came to speak at my school he seemed a bit suprised when I asked to take a picture with him. I think both of them are just people that don't really like the glitz and glamour of the high fashion industry, they just want to make clothes.

Great article!

His passion is so inspirational. And such an incredible thoughtfulness that flowed through this article indeed. Like his work. He and the rest of the Belgians are perfect archetypes of purity and soul.

Ok its official, we all love Dries! I love his attitude and the fact that he survived and became successful with his outlook on business and design! It gives me hope.

Imagine, even if Cathy Horyn (or whatever her name is) can't f*&k up an article about Dries, nobody can.

Cathy Horyn is fantastic journalist,though. She never F's up anything...always spot on and eloquate.

^^ Where do you go to school??

Great article... how old is he? I must have missed it..

 

[meme527]

can someone email me this interview!?

He reminds me of Issey Miyake. When I had met him after he came to speak at my school ......

i wondered where you went to school as well. meeting mr. miyake would be worth the price of admission.

now, does someone have a copy of this interview they'd be willing to email me? that would make my day. i can't seem to find any interviews with him.

thanks in advance, meme

How is Dries Van Noten lately?

I love his work, I would say he is the only still around designer who can design both men & women line with same intergrity.
