Starting off with a presentation of casual wear, Dries Van Noten presented wide-leg trousers, pencil skirts, long-sleeved dresses, blazers, trench coats and jackets in a floral print under a clash of bohemian Edwardian and oriental influences.

Casual wear then swiftly turned into evening wear with macs becoming evening dresses, skirts tied up and clinched at the waist, flamboyant tops with feathers and flowers fastened at the neck and brocade-style boots on show. It was about layering individual garments together to create a dressed-up, dressed-down collection.
