Individual designers; Fashion & textiles: design

For the first time ever, Walter Van Beirendonck opens up his personal archives to reveal an incredibly rich but meticulously curated selection of the transmutative drawings that have been crucial in bridging the gap between his mind, his runways and the world at large.

As one of the most influential fashion designers ever, the Antwerp Six member has been rethinking and reshaping what contemporary clothing can look and feel like for over four decades.

Previously stored within his private vault, this curation of more than five hundred drawings on paper, some dreamt up in the eighties, others just weeks ago, offer an unprecedented insight into the wonderful, wild, hopeful world of a true artist who relentlessly follows his calling, no matter the hurdles or setbacks along the way.

This Walter Van Beirendonck bible, filled with more than 500 of his most magnificent drawings, is an indispensable addition to the personal library of any fashion lover.

Walter Van Beirendonck is a Belgian fashion designer. He graduated in 1980 from the Royal Arts Academy in Antwerp. Together with Dirk Van Saene, Dries Van Noten, Ann Demeulemeester, Marina Yee and Dirk Bikkembergs they became known as the Antwerp Six when the idea of Belgian fashion seemed like a contradiction in terms. He was the fashion advisor for U2 and their PopMart Tour and Erasure for their Cowboy Tour. Since 1983, he issues his own collections. They are inspired by the visual arts, literature, nature and ethnic influences. His unusual colour combinations and a strong graphic influence are characteristic for his collections.
