Ann Demeulemeester
Ann Demeulemeester is a Belgian born designer who emerged in the early 1990s, and is part of the legendary ‘Antwerp Six’ a group of designers who graduated from Antwerp’s The Royal Academy of Fine Arts. Since then she has been recognised worldwide as one of fashion's leading creative forces. The Ann Demeulemeester men’s collection includes ready to wear, accessories, shoes and jewellery.
Antwerp (Belgium) based, but showing at Paris Fashion Week, like fellow academy graduate Martin Margiella, Ann Demeulemeester is truly a continental designer - something which is reflected in her menswear. With a poetic nonchalance, that lifts clothing and design into the realm of a personal expression rather than just a product, Ann Demeulemeester creates menswear like no other. Intimately refined, her menswear designs have been a slow and steady progression since her debut on the Paris fashion scene in 1992, indeed, over 20 years later, her men’s collections have never been stronger, or more highly regarded. Ann Demeulemeester menswear is for the man whose style refuses to be constrained by tradition, or what has gone before.
