Gift of Dries Van Noten
Object number2015.43.1
This jacket plays on Yves Saint Laurent’s safari jackets. For this collection, Dries Van Noten was heavily influenced by the 1970s and used denim as a vehicle for pastiche and historical homage. Van Noten created the denim he used by replacing the traditionally white weft threads of denim with a gold Lurex, giving the textile a subtle glow.
