Paris Fashion Week Highlight: Dries Van Noten







I'm seeing an Asian micro-trend in some of these fall collections, no? Dries is certainly included, with prints heavily influenced by Asia, a crane embellishment on a blazer, and kimono-like cuts and fabrics. To ground the Eastern inspiration was military tailoring and shapes perfectly acceptable for pounding the pavement in the West (or wherever you may live, really) - easy trousers, belted jackets, and pencil skirts.
