Dries van Noten Fall 2013 collection was a veritable discourse on why opposites attract. This collection was a gentle dance between masculine and feminine, hard and soft, daytime and evening, tantalizing and familiar, in a way that only Van Noten can do it, with pinstripes, rep stripes, jewels, fringe and feathers galore. Head-to-toe brocade looks were punctuated by fringe and an outburst of ostrich feathers; chinoiserie-inspired embroidery adorned blazer and coat lapels; crisp white button-ups were styled with feathered maxi skirts; and tiered, fringed 1920s-esque minidresses were layered over pinstriped cigarette pants. The entire looks is perfectly measured, as is always as the case with Van voten display. (Text Teuku Ajie)
