No more lovelorn dreamers, gimmicky details or esoteric themes for Kris Van Assche. The designer sent out tough and streetwise youngsters in light, clean layers and proportions evocative of urban sports and Eastern cultures. A typical look was a strong-shouldered blazer, tossed over a tunic, and a pair of long shorts with leggings underneath — all-black or all-gray. A pounding sound track drove home the show of strength.
