Collection Blanche by Ann Demeulemeester.

[CHRIS]

i saw a thread on tfs about this but there wasnt much info.

Something to look forward to. In September, Ann Demeulemeester will launch Collection Blanche, a limited edition of re-released pieces from her 20-year archive, back by popular demand. A few examples...

"Holly" tank top (1998) / pearl-embroidered silk top (1993)



vest, leather leggings and boots (1998) / asymmetric wool coat (1998)

I saw this as well, I'm a bit torn though

I'm glad she is releasing some iconic pieces however it just seems like shes doing it for the money, I could be wrong though

either way I still can't wait

I emailed AD's sales staff about this. The Collection Blanche lign will only consist of women's clothes for now.

Ann was asked to do it by the stores who kept selling out of her stuff mid-season. I think resurrecting pieces is an awesome idea - I am all for permanence, continuity, remembrance of things past, and that kind of thing. This will be great - imagine you missed a certain cool piece, and now you have a chance to own it. But, yea, womens only. At least for those of us with small size, the boots will be available.

Avantster, the three buckle boot next summer [<:o)]

Ah, it is only for women? Shucks.

Re: Collection Blanche by Ann Demeulemeester.

At least for now. Maybe SZ needs to petition! [75]

Re: Collection Blanche by Ann Demeulemeester.

Shoot, I bet half of us could come to the exact pieces we would like to see reproduced. I'd at least love to know she was going to reproduce some of the Men's to be carried at her own stores.

i think she rereleased the three buckle boot this summer... they keep showing up on yahoo andare also advertised on why-lip as a part of the s/s 08 collection?

/\ Hmmm, haven't seen any in stores - that would be cool though.

Re: Collection Blanche by Ann Demeulemeester.



Interesting, I did actually see the three buckle boots at Omotesando in Feb earlier this year - didn't have my size though.

But I definitely didn't see them anywhere else, HK nor Antwerp.
