Driven by a passion for subcultures but also his dose of decorative arts and romanticism, Dries Van Notene presents the Fall/Winter 2023-24 menswear show which turns out to be an extraordinary cultural melting pot.

Often a collection can be the sum of many things that happen, this is the case of <a href="https://www.driesvannoten.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dries Van Noten</a> who decides not to abandon his faithful cultural and thematic influences that have always distinguished the Antwerp-based brand. For the <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/the-show-louis-vuitton-mens-fall-winter-2023-2024-as-if-you-were-there" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fall-winter 2023-24 men 's fashion show</a>, on the one hand you can perceive his formal romanticism, driven by the decorative arts, the passion for flowers and gardening and exotic influences, on the other the bold inclination for subcultures, a trend which has always received special attention from designers belonging to the Antwerp school.
Accompanied by a live drum and synthesizer performance, the models parade in a garage with a rave allure that contextualizes the <a href="https://www.driesvannoten.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fall Winter 2023-24 men 's</a> show. Mesh shirts also appear with the numbers of basketball shirts in maxi versions, but there are also his trademarks such as chromatic clashes, graphic motifs that are always well dosed and never too disturbing, and that carefully studied layered silhouette of the Van Noten wardrobe.

The result is a match of aesthetic influences that unite &quot;The freedom and self-expression of the rave culture of the 90s, combined however with the surreal beauty of nature&quot;. Therefore optical graphic prints, interspersed with monochromatic and prints with botanical references. Then always guided also by his attention to tailoring, he shows fluid suits on the catwalk, and other more structured ones that accurately tell his type of man who in some cases is capable of adopting a more minimalist and sophisticated approach. As transversal as ever, Dries Van Noten continues to present intriguing cultural combinations. It does so by staying true to itself and adopting the same authoritative approach that always looks to a larger melting pot.
