Kris Van Assche A/W 2015
Mood board: We never thought camouflage could camouflage itself, until Kris Van Assche blew it up so big that it became mere abstract, amorphous divides across skinny suits and knitwear in greyscale wools shot through in washed blue and green. Elsewhere puffers gleamed in shocking jockey satin and puffs of white fox, grounded on wide-laced trainers.
Team work: Sound stylist Michel Gaubert mixed through ‘Negative Creep’ by Koudlam, for a thumping new Coldwave the artist calls ‘electronic opera’.
Scene setting: Blink and you’d miss it, but Van Assche had autumn leaves scattered across the parquetry runway of the Galerie de Minéralogie et de Géologie, subtly evoking the windswept paths of his street smart muse.
