EN/ After three years of insisting, the German filmmaker Reiner Hölzemer was granted permission to follow the Flemish fashion designer Dries Van Noten in his work and life. Van Noten, whose style is characterized by warm colors, exquisite prints, embroidery and elegant cuts is one of the last independent fashion designers, thus occupying a unique position in the fashion designing landscape. He has been at the top for 25 years, and many of his collections can be nominated as iconic. Van Noten is especially known for his frugality and modesty, you will not often see him at fashion parties and he rarely gives any interviews. For the first time he agrees on letting a camera into his professional and personal life. Director Reiner Hölzemer followed Dries Van Noten for a year, documenting the creation of four collections.
