Dries Van Noten's collection was the best so far...
And it probably will continue to be the best. I don’t expect anyone to create such beauty. Maybe Ricardo at Givenchy. Maybe Pilati at Yves Saint Laurent. But I doubt that they will actually match Van Noten’s genius. I doubt it.

Finally—balance.
After seasons of Massimiliano Giornetti doing too much or too little, the designer has finally struck an equilibrium between his convictions and his reality as the Creative Director of a relatively large brand.
