Dover Street Market Paris and MoMu present THE ANTWERP SIX: Walter Van Beirendonck and Sara Sozzani Maino in Conversation

Dear Shaded Viewers,

A special conversation between Walter Van Beirendonck and Sara Sozzani Maino took place at Dover Street Market Paris, celebrating both MoMu Antwerp’s The Antwerp Six exhibition and Walter’s 40th anniversary collection, presented during the Antwerp Fashion Festival.

 

 

 

Reflecting on curiosity as a driving force throughout his career, Walter shared: “I enjoy it whether I go to a fine dining restaurant or a McDonald’s. Just stay curious and open to everything.”
