I like to be annoying about dries and few others do. I feel like the last couple years he has really been finding a groove again 🙂 this is my bat signal
yeah I've really liked most of the recent ones, women's fw22 was my fav in a long while.
really great prints in that one imo
DRIES #1
This was also my recent fave. A very different feel to lots of his stuff prior but it was so well shot and well designed
AW16 and SS19 are still my favs. But someone (pretty sure a Regular(tm)) described his pieces as 'delicate' and that feels very true
ss14 the goat
i have a lot of dries and i really wouldnt describe the clothes as delicate
some are sturdy af
of course the sheer stuff is delicate but that's how they're supposed to be
yeah I kinda love that
I do wonder if that's part of why the taste level or whatever seems to vary a lot from collection to collection. like sometimes it's idiosyncratic genius and sometimes it's giving old lady
dvn SS13 is still one of my fave seasons and i own a lot of dries from ss13 to aw16, and a couple from the len lye season.. last few years havent been clicking for me though
actually i do like this season
yeah i'll follow this
just found out about the brand they have some really nice stuff

are their sales good I was hoping of getting each for 200-300£
I think the most they do is 50% off at the end of the season
You can check Ssense, Mr Porter, Matches, End, etc to see if any of them have the same jackets since they do deeper discounts
damn 500£ is a lot
I checked they were more or less the same but thx
Yeah you'll have to wait until closer to summer when everything gets marked down
A dries jacket at that price youd have to really dig second-hand
Especially lately their prices have gone up quite a bit
also MyTheresa. i got a DVN wool cableknit sweater for like 70% off a few months ago
I keep lying to myself 😦
❤️
you just gotta wait it out and be patient until crazy sales haha
or the usual stuff like Grailed
Yep!
Grailed and trr are good places to passively search
Ssense sale and smaller stores like svrn and notre can get good sales too
I have a decent dries collection at this point but nothing crazy and its really just about passively getting lucky with finds over like 5 years lol
yeah fr. i do feel like there is a "luck" component to it haha
whats trr is that the name of the site?
problem is with grailed my accounts always get banned for some reason for suspicious activity not sure why maube they dont like uk shoppers
Oh sorry! The realreal
Its a second-hand consignment site
Also worth checking out vinted
ah thx
Vestiaire Collective is another EU option
yes I like that site thx
ive been using that forever thx
Hey does this brand fit true to size I’m a 5’8” male and I want to buy this jacket https://www.driesvannoten.com/en-gb/products/241-020511-8210 I normally wear a medium but the length of the medium is 26”
According to Mr porter I normally like something more cropped so was thinking to size down do most people who buy from this brand size down?

Mr. Porter has measurements
Yeah that's where I got them from but just wanted to double check because they're not always 100% accurate
You could probably size down and be fine. It is called “oversized jacket” on the website after all
Keep in mind it may not really fit as its intended to but as long as you can move in it thats up to you
Yeah the measurements on the size small still seemed quite oversized it’s just I would prefer it more cropped suppose I can return too
I bought the vabon jacket first ever item that I bought from the brand really liking it
heres another style of it
