What happens when a Belgian designer known for wearability meets a French couturier turned costume creator?
Dries Van Noten’s SS20 collaboration with Christian Lacroix, that’s what. This cotton midi dress sums up what captured editors’ hearts about the collection: the undulating sleeves belong to another century – one defined by extravagance – but the simple cotton fabric and loose cut of the rest make for a style that’s utterly insouciant.
