Knitwear is a great way to get a feel for the "Dries Van Noten" style, which is said to be a magician of color.
The off-white high-gauge knit is clad in peony flowers dyed in pale blue. The three-dimensional effect, as if they were scattered on a white beach, is the result of the print process.
The other piece features a hibiscus motif. The large hibiscus expressed in black and white yarn, combined with the oversized, rounded silhouette, is reminiscent of contemporary art.
In each case, the blurred lines of the knitwear succeed in making the motifs less conspicuous. They are sure to add a nice accent to a simple winter outfit.
The phrase "blurred strokes" is one of the keywords of this season's collection, which pays homage to the lost everyday. It is true that the everyday life we long for is still hazy.
Pale blue peony flowers are printed on a high gauge knit. The blurred outlines of the flowers create a subdued atmosphere. ¥147,400
