Relaxed silhouettes and bohemian prints reigned at the Dries Van Noten menswear presentation for Spring 2014. The show boasted hippie-inspired ensembles that were designed with the modern urbanite in mind. The collection’s most memorable pieces include its clashing print shirt and short combos along with its flower-printed robes and embroidered coats.
Prints and muted tones are a signature of the Dries Van Noten menswear aesthetic and are the visual element that make the label’s Spring 2014 collection one to remember.
The menswear line is both vibrant and wearable, mixing together multiple elements that make up its bold range of everyday wardrobe essentials. Though tropical, the line’s Hawaiian prints are subdued and can make a seamless transition from Summer to Autumn wear.
