Dries van Noten

[melt977]

Misako, you mean they didn't have the exact pair you are looking for? Because i'm sure that the Antwerp store did have the patent orange heels...

 

[Misako]

They might have had the orange zippered varity, which looks similar. I asked and someone in Belgium called and asked for me too, and they said they never ordered it. :/ Thanks though.

Oh well. Last shot is Hong Kong and then I'll see what I'll do from there if they don't have it.

misako...you are one determined lady!...

Can I just say that I love my new Dries boots, they are so elegant but the heel is what makes them. At the same time they are bad ***... but in a quiet way...

Every time I sit down all I can look at is that heel. Can you tell I'm in love? Thank GOD I did not get the Jill Sanders in the end.

Softgrey: I don't know I usually just wear them with super short skirts and t-shirts with some jacket worn open... it's not very imaginative I know, but it works for me... =)

misako you really are determined for those shoes, I really hope you do find them.. as if you do they will be so much more special.

thank hun..
that sounds really perfect.......
sometimes the simplest solution is the best i think...

i find that sometimes one can overthink things (well i can...)
and when i finally get frustrated and throw something together it winds up being the best thing...
go figure...
anyway - you have inspired me...thanks!


* i wore them with cropped frayed skinny jeans today...

yes a pic would be great pucci. Not to just jump in to the conversation Also, not to tempt but if you ever reconsidering those booties from mona moore I'm in Canada and coming back home to London the week before Christmas and would be more than happy to bring them over to you......but i'm going to check out the site now and see if they have any in my size! I do love the dries here. I loved the gold shoes from last season which also had that same heel shape. It's just so interesting and strong.

pucci, thrilled you like them so much . they are bad *** in a good way. what's great is we both wear them with totally different things and they work with all of it. they are so FABULOUS and have serious staying power in the closet and will never get pushed to the back. those babies sit up front and center in mine. Enjoy them!!

misako, sometime the hunt is the best part.

[luckyme]

unfortunetly the dress fabric is really itchy. I tried on the zipper top in it. but that coat had me at hello.

[softgrey]

ahhh...laika...i should have known ....

that dress could scratch me from now till kingdom come and i would smile happily just because i love it SO much...*sigh*....
it makes me weak...

[luckyme]

you take the gorg dress and laika and I will fight over the coat...

worth mentioning I just got [at 40% off] today a pre-bday gift...it not one I've ever seen posted...a dark grey aplaca v neck tunic with navy paisley all over. not sheer like in the lookbooks but not heavy either...its the perfect weight actually. love it so, I'm wearing it tomorrow.

 

[laika]

oh lucky, that sounds gorgeous!
I think I know the one you mean, actually.

Coat is all yours if you want it...you just have to call Paris.

nordstroms in westchester now carries Dries. I'm like a cheerleader for him the twice a year I go there. its pathetic..B)

oooh, so much gorgeous stuff being posted.
luckyme - please do post a picture of the tunic, it sounds really special. I loved his paisley stuff but never really saw much of it. I was hoping to get the paisley scarf, but I never saw it anywhere ...
softgrey - love both the dress and the coat you posted. I saw a short version of the coat and wanted to try it on but was afraid it would go home with me if I did. All his knot items were so beautiful, I wonder how the dresses would fit on petite women.

My husband wore a Dries three button suit for our wedding last Saturday. I love the slight sheen of the fabric and the dark buttons. Holding my bouquet in this pic, lol, couldn't find a better picture so far of what our friends have sent us

 

[luckyme]

tourist, I am so HAPPY for you, the burgundy flowers are the perfect accent for that amazing suit. so nice to see the mens represented here as well. I really can't express how handsome he looks, with the white shirt and tie, the perfect fit of the suit...it just all so in sync and just how Dries would want it worn. Congratulations, looks like you found the perfect match.

I really need to take a picture of the paisley long tunic, I wore it thanksgiving day over my leather junya cropped pants, loved how it all went together, but it was almost too warm for sweater weather on thursday.

with the frigid temps today, I'm glad I just won this Dries coat on ebay.

tourist, again...YIPPEE for you!!!!!
