This follows really nicely his spring 2013, which was, like this one, quite amazing. Patterns and colours are done and mixed nicely, like Dries usually does. I like the whole relaxed (careless) silhouette going on there. Were the clothes made that way or it's because of the styling? Either way, that's an A+ job.

What a collection. Dries x Birkenstock esque sandals making me want to go high fashion socks with sandals.

Think this rocks, very stoked for fall

Some great collections coming through from pfw, this so far being my favorite. His women's ss13 collection I absolutely loved, and this has notes of it throughout. Muted prints and colors on incredible fabrics, and I'm loving the relaxed silhouettes. Two favorites are:

I'm so happy he did a moto pant for men in the fall - he did this same pant in his ss13 collection for women and I was so envious. Also most of the knits look like they're softer than blankets.

DAT COAT - best iteration of a 'robe coat' I've seen and the pattern is just brilliant, something I can see myself in for years

I'm tired of the bazaar orientalism of pajamas and bathrobes as casual wear but the prints are ace, that carpetwear trend is also funny as hell and it's a nice bomber.
