VINTAGE Ann Demeulemeester Spring 1997 SEXY Black Wrap Dress Size 38 - Look 48

Spring 1997 RTW - Runway Look 48 One of the original Antwerp Six, Ann Demeulemeester already had a cult following for her suits when she presented a dress-focused collection for Spring 1997 that so beautifully combined classicism with asymmetry and nonchalance with elegance, that select pieces ended up in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. “I wanted to create a new silhouette again,” the Belgian designer said, “because I felt so tired of seeing all these women in close-to-the-body clothes.” She wasn’t the only one. Though Demeulemeester’s retired, her label today is as well known for the slightly askew quality of this signpost show as anything else in her oeuvre.
