Dries Van Noten: “I want to show reality”

Dries-Van-Noten-01

Name: Dries Van Noten
DOB: 12 May 1958
Place of birth: Antwerp, Belgium
Occupation: Fashion Designer

Mr. Van Noten, when your father retired, he preferred to close his company rather than sell it. Can you imagine your eponymous fashion label going on without you?

I hope that my company could live without me because I have the responsibility for people who work with us – those in the company in Antwerp and those who produce our clothes, who print our fabrics, who embroider. We have nearly three thousand people in India who embroider all our things by hand. It would be a pity if the moment I say, “I’ve had it, I’m stopping,” all those people would be kind of unemployed. And especially the knowledge that we have tried to keep alive in small villages in India or a small mill in Cornwall that’s still doing hand-woven fabrics. So, I really hope it’s possible and I’m convinced that we’re structuring things so that if something would happen, the company can live without me. As a responsible fashion designer, you have to work like that, I think. It would be a bit selfish to say, “It can be only me who can make this survive.”

Kris Van Assche: “You swim in order not to drown”

Mr. Van Assche, as the creative director for Dior Homme you deal with beauty all the time. Do you remember the first time you recognized beauty?

No, but I do know that as a child beauty was a big part of my upbringing because my grandmother was a real aesthete and I used to be really close to her. When I was a kid she was making her own clothes and at one point started making clothes for me, so it was already a big part of it when I was like 10 or 12 years old.

What does beauty mean to you?

I don’t really differentiate beauty according to where it comes from. Making a nice table for a nice dinner is nicer than just eating food out of a plastic plate. It’s always been about that little extra effort that makes all the difference. And I think that’s true in all aspects of life.

Mr. Smith, I’ve heard that you play music in your office every morning from 6 until 8 before everyone else shows up. What did you listen to today?

This morning I was listening to a little English singer called Jake Bugg, who sounds a bit like a young Bob Dylan. He’s actually from my hometown Nottingham, so I know him and he’s a very nice lad. I love my two hours of peace in the morning. It’s heaven.

How do you pick what music to listen to?

It completely depends on my mood and how late I got to bed or what type of day I’ve got ahead of me.

Recipient of multiple awards, in particular the CFDA award for womenswear and menswear designer, Michael Kors has been one of the most influential American designers for over two decades. It all started in New York City where, at the age of 19, he designed and merchandised a collection for a well-known local boutique. Over the years, Kors’ vision of beautiful, luxurious American sportswear flourished and expanded to the world of women’s accessories, as well as complete menswear. Michael Kors flagship stores are in New York City’s Madison Avenue, Beverly Hills’ Rodeo Drive, and also in Hong Kong and Dubai. As the brand continues its expansion in Europe, Michael Kors tells that for him it has always been about the Michael Kors woman. Let’s find out.
