At first glance, it seems like this
Dries Van Noten creation is devoid of its usual homegrown florals. But look again at this midi dress, and you’ll notice the Belgian designer’s flair for punchy prints is on show via abstract blooms stitched in pleated layers around the waist. Everything else (like the pure cotton construction, round neckline, and knee-skimming hem) is traditional, so the focus is on the visibly striking waistband.
