No more ugly chic for Dries Van Noten. He’s bringing beautiful back with a global swirl of prints, a soothing palette of natural and inky hues and a relaxed silhouette evocative of loungewear. Shown outside — not inside — the Paris Bourse, while a truck loaded with speakers pumped club music toward the runway, even the most finely tailored suits with exaggerated shoulders were purged of any businesslike sensibility. Hand-printed pocket squares sagged lazily from the jackets. Three-pleat trousers were cropped and tapered and hinted at martial arts. Blazers and vests were knotted with fabric belts or waist ties, giving them the same robelike look as the soft trenchcoats that, along with sheer billowing parkas, were the key outerwear items. Mills from at least six countries yielded batiks, ikats, block prints, madras, pinstripes and micro checks. One could only guess where this worldly fellow was going in the clothes, but it surely wasn’t a financial institution.
