This young designer is originary from Bruges, Belgium and studied at the Royal Academy of Arts in Antwerp. Before launching his own label during the Prêt-a-porter in Paris last February, he worked as a junior designer for Jean Paul Gaultier (women’s pré collections and G2 Men’s collection) and as head designer for several European labels such as the capsule collection Bruno Pieters + Weekday (Scandinavian label soon to open a flagship store in Amsterdam, TD) and the personal collection for the Honest by‘ label also for fellow-Belgian Bruno Pieters.
His designs propose minimalism and contrast captured in graphic tailoring. Especially the contrast in materials is apparent; airy silk fabrics combined with heavier textiles.
