Dries Van Noten Women’swear Fall Winter 2022 – 2023 presentation at Paris Fashion Week
An ephemeral three-day curated exhibition in Paris presents the world of Dries Van Noten. The garment collections for women and men stand alongside the debut of Dries Van Noten beauty, perfumes, and lipstick.
The exhibit is housed at an abandoned Maison de maître, Hotel de Guise in the 7th arrondissement. Those invited view garments styled as outfits displayed on mannequins, accessories and a ‘Wunderkammer’ of jewellery. A short documentary film by Lisa Immordino Vreeland recounts the story of this exhibition and the photoshoot for women. A film by Casper Sejersen presents the recent collection for men.
