Ann Demeulemeester creates a personal expression in her collection like no other. Intimately refined, her designs have been a slow & steady progression since her debut on the Paris fashion scene in 1992. Now with a successful menswear line & jewellery the Ann Demeulemeester establishment has never been stronger, or more highly regarded. Demeulemeesters collection expresses a self-exile in Africa as a major influence on her collection. The collection comes across was the idea of cultures interweaving: the cut & cloth of European clothes being slowly infected by orientalism & intangible mystery. Formal shawl-collared jackets & waistcoats layered over shirts & tunics.
