Engakaze abe namahloni okuphambene nokusanhlamvu, u-Walter Van Beirendonck washiya izingubo zezemidlalo - isigaba esivame kakhulu emigwaqweni yamadoda yasentwasahlobo ka-2017 - ngeqoqo elimnandi kakhulu. Lokho akusho ukuthi i-maverick yaseBelgium yashiya isiphithiphithi sayo sendabuko semibala, amaphethini nokuthungwa, kodwa ayizange ifihle ikhono lakhe lobuciko lokuthunga kahle.
Kusukela ekubukeni kokuqala, isudi ye-boiler esike kahle, isandla sika-Van Beirendonck se-deft sasibonakala emajakhethi esudi, ibhulukwe namahembe. Kube nesilinganiso esinempilo sokuhleka, futhi, kusukela ngendikimba yohlelo lwakhe, imfumbe engaphenduleki ethi “Alice in Wonderland”: “Kungani igwababa lifana nedeski lokubhala?”
Uhlale eyingcweti ekwakhiweni nasekukhiweni, uVan Beirendonck, ngokwesibonelo, usike izimbobo amajakhethi okwakuphuma kuwo amaribhoni anemibala. Eqinisweni, zazilenga ekubukekeni ngakunye, eziningi zazo ezazinemihlobiso edala imiklamo efana nobuso bejometri.
Amaphethini ayemaningi, futhi, njengezindwangu zendabuko zaseDashi eziphrintiwe ngesandla, ezibizwa ngokuthi i-staphorster stipwerk, ama-jacquards nemithende, konke okungezele ku-eclecticism e-quirky ehlala iwuphawu lukaVan Beirendonck.
