Last season, Dries Van Noten was honored by FIT, and I was able to hear him speak both at a luncheon given in his honor and at FIT, where he spoke to an auditorium full of students. The Belgium designer is insightful, soft spoken, and clearly passionate about what he does. No one can work a print like Dries Van Noten, and I usually like his work best when it’s on the brighter side of his color palette. This season however Van Noten went dark and military inspired, but there was no shortage of dazzling, utterly wearable looks.
