Van Noten tau hais tias nws txoj kev sib xyaw ua ke ntawm kev txiav thiab cov khoom xws li kuj yog ib qho kev xav ntawm ntau haiv neeg ntawm Antwerp, uas tso cov neeg los ntawm 186 ntau haiv neeg.
"Peb tau nyob hauv, kuv xav tias, qhov thib tsib kaw ntawm no hauv Antwerp thaum peb pib sau cov ntawv no. Thiab thaum kuv tham nrog kuv pab neeg los tham txog dab tsi nws yuav yog hais txog, nws yog tiag tiag txog kev tawm tsam: Peb twb muaj nws, thiab tam sim no peb xav kom muaj kev lom zem, peb xav tog, peb xav txaus siab rau tej yam, peb xav mus. mus rau hauv lub nroog thiab peb xav pom cov neeg. "
Yog li hais tias Van Noten nqis rau Zoom, tso tawm nws cov lus tshaj tawm rau lub caij nyoog hedonistic sensually thaum ib txhij echoing Peter Fonda-sampled intro rau Primal Scream's Loaded, suab paj nruag rau DVN cov yeeb yaj kiab zoo tshaj plaws sau: "Peb xav kom muaj kev ywj pheej ua qhov peb xav tau. ua!… Thiab peb xav tau loaded! Thiab peb xav kom muaj lub sijhawm zoo! Thiab qhov ntawd yog qhov peb yuav ua! ”
Tsis tau nug txog seb Van Noten thiab nws pab pawg puas tau thauj khoom-vim tias muaj dab tsi tshwm sim hauv Antwerp nyob hauv Antwerp-lawv tau pom meej meej tias muaj kev tawg ua ke ua ke hauv zej zog no, lub zog nrawm ntawm kev sau.
Pab neeg ntawd tau ua ib qho kev sib koom ntawm cov duab hauv xov tooj ntawm lub nroog, los ntawm kev lag luam scenic crane toj roob hauv pes mus rau strobe-lit club txhaj tshuaj los ntawm kev xav ntawm lub pas dej ua ke nrog milieus, uas tau muab sib xyaw ua cov luam tawm ntawm paneled parkas thiab silky tsho.
Cov duab no tom qab ntawd tau hais tawm tsam '70s vintage Antwerp municipal logo (raws li lees paub rau txhua tus kheej-saib Sinjoren li kuv ❤︎ NY meme yog rau New Yorker) thiab etchings coj (nrog kev tso cai) los ntawm ob tug Flanders tus tub nto moo tshaj plaws, Breughel thiab Rubens. Cov duab collaged ntawm cov tsoos tsho tau raug tua tawm tsam ib qho keeb kwm ntawm ntau lub nroog hauv zos, mus rau 56 qhov uas DVN thiab nws pab neeg tau rub lub podium dawb los ua phau ntawv saib. Ntawm lawv tag nrho, lub tsev kawm ntawv paj yeeb-tabarded nyob rau hauv saib rau muaj pov thawj qhov kawg uas cov no tsis yog scenes xwb lazily projected nyob rau hauv ncej.
Van Noten tau hais tias nws tus cwj pwm rau qhov kev sau no yog: "Cov txiv neej yog dab tsi? Womenswear yog dab tsi? Cia li muab pov tseg tag nrho ua ke thiab nqa yam koj nyiam. " Cov pa dichotomies tau ua kom zoo nkauj tsis muaj dab tsi hauv "pojniam poj niam" zoo li featuring tailored, overlong, thiab overdyed ris nyob rau hauv lus Askiv mohair slides, thiab zoo heev "menswear" camo parka thiab nplua nyob rau hauv 35 gram silk plongée lined hauv paj rwb voile.
Geographically tshwj xeeb rau Antwerp, tab sis tolerantly nonspecific nyob rau hauv cov nqe lus ntawm lub geography ntawm cov poj niam txiv neej txoj cai, qhov no yog ib tug sau uas tau tiag tiag saib zoo mus loaded nyob rau hauv.
