A documented archive piece from Dries Van Noten's Spring-Summer 1999 collection, the season inspired by Jane Campion's The Piano, in which Van Noten combined open knit jackets with runny prints and mussel shell jewellery. This exact style is featured in the MoMu (ModeMuseum Antwerp) exhibition catalog under the title "Blouse in machine lace, Dries Van Noten, 1999-2000." A sheer grey machine lace knit layers over a black underlayer, sleeveless with a V neckline and ribbed trim at the hem and shoulders.
Note on composition: this exact top does not have its own material tag attached. The composition below (35% rayon, 25% cotton, 25% nylon, 15% silk) is taken from a matching tag found on the same style online, not from this specific garment.
Condition: very good.
