A nostalgic trail into the past or a high speed motor chase
on a highway into the future? Although the end game of the Dries Van Norten Fall
2014 collection was debatable, the evidence of his creative vision was
protruding.
Psychedelic florals and rave cave metallics gave way to a
feeling of panache, as the show took a bypass into the world of shimmering glam
rock. Lucid dreams of the club culture were wrapped up in signature man-styled
coats and trousers, while trip-inducing prints and optical motifs were slapped
on bright light sweats and tees.
With floral interjections quite literally continuing from
fabric into form and hard edge metallics that couldn’t have been further from
cliché, the collection was a culmination of Van Norten signatures and a spiral
of decadent statements, that you can only assume come accompanied by an inhibition
freeing soundtrack sending low smooth beats pulsating through the body.
