Five years ago, if you ask me to wear my Grandma’s shoes, I would yell out “Hell! No!” madly like a savage caveman insanely fighting a ferocious tiger; but after seeing so many Scandinavian girls rocking their beloved Granny’s outfits, I am not certain whether yesterday is really out and over with. The scrumptious shoes from Belgian designer Dries van Noten’s Fall/Winter 2009/10 collection carries that old vintage charm with the conservative cut in that familiar shade of camel, which we all...

Let’s hop on the style wagon and join Belgian designer Dries Van Noten for an unforgettable journey [...] Read the rest of this entry » Read Full Story
Well, Averyl Oates (buying director for Harvey Nichols) may think the Dries van Noten shoes were all that , but I can’t say as I agree.
This is a designer who’s previously brought us such glorious pattern and texture combinations as the Spring 2009 line and the likewise-stylish Fall 2008 line .
But for Fall 2009, I have to say my high hopes were disappointed. Pattern, yes. But monochromatic and not terribly interesting. Texture, sure, but only with a repeated python print (yawn… I’m... Read Full Story
Bold prints, harem pants and beefy sailor looks ruled the catwalks Thursday on day one of Paris' menswear displays, with strong spring-summer 2010 collections by Belgium's critical darling Dries Van Noten, French luxury label Louis Vuitton and the country's one-time enfant terrible, Jean Paul Gaultier. Japanese label Issey Miyake gave a Turkish spin to its East-meets-West aesthetic, sending out a mosaic and tulip-print collection fit for a sultan. Emanuel Ungaro kept the color popping with a...

Electricity was in the air — literally — at Dries Van Noten, as a summer thunderstorm and a truck fitted with thumping speakers amped up the voltage at the Belgian designer's already-charged menswear display Thursday. The crowd of spectators crackled with glee and a touch of fright when a deafening clap of thunder rang out just as Van Noten — a critical favorite known for his ethnic prints in oddly beautiful color combinations — took to the runway for a final bow. The spring-summer 2010... Read Full Story
A lot of you have been very critical of Nicole Kidman's style, whereas I have been a strong campaigner, but tonight I must admit I was very disappointed with her Dries Van Noten Spring 2009 coat dress. First the honeycomb silver sequins remind me too much of the dress she wore to the New York premiere last week, and I was expecting something fresh new. There was no wow factor, which I usually have when I see Nicole, and I really disliked her hair pulled back. The only thing that works for me... Read Full Story
Nicole Kidman wowed the crowds at the New York Premiere of Australia last night, looking beautiful and statuesque as she walked the red carpet with her husband, Keith Urban and co-star Hugh Jackman. The star took a night off wearing white and her favoured designer L'Wren Scott , to wear a gold and black sequined Dries Van Noten Spring 2009 dress. I liked that Nicole chose to wear an elasticated belt with her dress, as it gives her a nice silhouette, and had she worn it as it appeared on the... Read Full Story
In these cash-strapped times, Belgian designer Dries Van Noten wisely built his collection Sunday for Paris fashion week around a wardrobe staple: the classic winter coat. Women may think twice in a recession about frittering on fripperies. But a beautiful coat, which gives years of service, can always be regarded as an investment. Van Noten offered plenty of choice, from his opening number -- a fawn teddybear wool coat -- to versions in cyclamen pink, crushed raspberry, teal and slate blue... Read Full Story
