The Ultimate Kris Van Assche

The work of Kris Van Assche balances modernization with a sense of history mingled with nostalgia. Apart from being at the helm of Dior Homme, Van Assche had launched his own collection in 2005. In just half a decade, he has created a world of casual elegance which is refined and distinctive, as only his work can be.

A distinctive feature of his work is the fact that he does not generally design clothes just for the ramp. Rather, he believes in designing for regular people, and therein lays his uniqueness and individuality.

Van Assche’s latest pursuit can be seen in the Fall 2010 collection, where the focus was on monochrome palette, white shirts and leather jackets. This approach to fashion is a sophisticated one, which pays immense attention to detail and which gives one the feel of the days gone by, all in one go. In this collection, Van Assche has presented a sophisticated approach which is at variation with the usual material that hits the ramp.

Van Assche states that his inspiration in design is the man who likes to dress up and who pays attention to his looks. Therefore, the man who likes to look different has a great chance to infuse authenticity with his masculinity. The urban brooder is no longer left with limited choices.

Adding Van Assche’s collection to your wardrobe will give you designer wear that can be worn off the ramp, and which won’t make you look out of place.
