Dries van Noten

[softgrey]

we have shopping threads for a lot of designers and it occurs to me that we have enough dries fans here that it justifies it's own thread...!

and this way we won't hijack all the other threads drooling over dries...
...

YAY, terrific idea; Dries deserves this thread as do his van groupies .

gee, I hope I can find enough to post...B)

Sure to be a breathtaking and incisive thread. I have been toying with the idea of buying my first 'designer' piece and naturally, it'd have to be Dries so I'm sure this thread will be helpful in the coming months...

I found some pictures on my computer of past and recent purchases.

oh my god, luck you.
it's all so dreamy..

 

[melt977]

Oh luckme! I love your collection!!!!! I would be very proud!

 

[luckyme]

thanks. its crazy, I didn't realize I had so much. some I don't even have pictures of. its fun to post, I've never seen them in context before.

two more. my wedges are black canvas with black patent, I wear them with little black anklets. my fun shoes. this is my favorite sweater, I missed out on it in stores, and was crushed, but one morning a year later yoox had it posted.

I hope some others post too.

^^^omg...my new swtr from h&m is such a copy of that one!...
now i know why it appealed to me so much...
duh!......

i actually bought it in black at first and i loved it...
but then decided grey would be best for me...
so i could wear it with a black bottom..
but now i want the black one toooooooooo!!!.......

i want that whole outfit actually!!!...

* see lucky...
it's good to post all the things..
gives you an overview...
that is how stylists/editors put together fashion stories...
...

it helps you see what works with what and what is too similar or what is missing...etc...
so does photographing and cataloguing your looks...
...
*see- there is a method to my madness...

you do have some lovely things...

*what about the gold pumps?
didn't you say you got them?

I have the white shirt that ties in front as well...
mine is peach...i think it's on yoox now...i was toying with buying the red one too...


how do you wear yours?
i find it sort of tricky, don't you?...

[softgrey]

ha!...that's the one i was thinking of getting..
that i have in peach...

isn't it funny - we all have it ...but all in diff colours...



*leyla...how do you wear yours...with jeans i imagine..

 

[laika]

It's here-thanks to magnificent yoox photography, you can't really see it.

 

[laika]

Here's a better picture--this is the color that I have.

It's gorgeous (although probably less versatile than the brown). But, like I said, very, very fragile--the fabric is a very thin silk.

 

[just_me]

!wow! that blue is amazing!

 

[softgrey]

omg!......



wow...
that is amazing...
i can imagine how difficult it must be to wear...
gorgeous..but not the most practical thing..

abolutely stunning though....thanks!......

 

[laika]

Exactly--it's not something you just throw on. I've been thinking about making another version with heavier fabric and fewer safety pins--I love the pins!

Dashing out the door right now, but soft, thanks so much for this lovely thread and luckyme.....

I'll be back.

 

[wheneveriwakeup]

That scarf is A-MAZINGLY PRECIOUS, Laika..! The color is so vibrant and versatile. I can't stop gazing at it, srsly...

Your stuff is pretty amazing too, Luckyme, esp. the amazing shoes!

 

[leyla m.]

yep, that tunic did prove to be popular. i love it but have actually never worn it. ive put on weight since and dont look too good in it
im eyeing a couple of dries coats for this winter.
been wanting one for years just never found an interesting one.. i think now is the time?
