'MEN AT WORK' AT KRIS VAN ASSCHE





Kris Van Assche was inspired by working men this s/s with a colour palette of grey white and black. Chic black vests with classic Van Assche hareem trousers formed simple, elegant silhouettes. Whereas some of the boys looked as though they'd just returned from a bike ride on a rainy day with mud splattered up their backs! There is a fluidity in Kris Van Assche's work, in the gentle draping. There is also i feel, a realness, an integrity there which stems from his respect and reference to the working man. When he speaks of working men i hope he means builders and electricians and painters, coz that's what springs to my mind.
