Dear Shaded Viewers,

Dries Van Noten presented a poetic, opulent and alluring show today, with hints of exuberance and romance. Feathers, rhinestones, college stripes and flower prints were some of the collection's highlights, as well as perfectly tailored, oversized coats, which added a nice masculine touch. The Belgian designer can get away with pretty much anything, especially when it comes to unusual pairings and associations. I loved the upbeat, rich and eccentric feel of his show.
