Our first delivery of Bernhard Willhelm has finally arrived & we are in love with BW!!
Born in Ulm, South Germany, Bernhard studied at the ROYAL ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS in Antwerp.
During his studies he assisted Walter van Beirendonck, Alexander Mc Queen, Vivienne Westwood and Dirk Bikkembergs.
A true maverick of fashion!! View his wares under the collections page, or better still come in & see them in the flesh.
Dries has just completed his Fall/Winter menswear show in Paris. The collection was was inspired by Oscar Wilde & Frank Zappa & unlikely duo!! Zappa’s dialogues with fictional groupie goddess Suzy Creamcheese spliced together with a plummy-voiced narration of Wilde’s “The Happy Prince” (maybe it was Stephen Fry, but it sounded too plummy even for him). And while models walked to that soundtrack, a team of artists painted a mural that used Wilde’s words and Zappa’s winginess. It was, to say the very least, a multifocal event, maybe even a happening.
Dries has taken on board the heightened perceptions of the psychedelic sixties in the motifs lifted from Dutch artist Gijs Frieling and the reinterpretation of Wilde’s words by calligraphy artist Letman.
Looking closely at the garments you can see the text in the print which is all Oscar Wilde blended with the crazy 60″s Frank Zappa in the blazers with swans & owls & the big monkey sweaters.
We love this menswear collection & aural collage & can’t wait to see what Dries has install for the women’s wear collection we will see in Paris in Feb/March…..S&P….X
