Dries Van Noten has always worked in the space between menswear tailoring and womenswear ease, and this pair captures that tension precisely. A structured oxford front, complete with lacing and a stitched vamp, is grafted onto an open, slingback-style mule back, softened further by a low, sculpted kitten heel. The result is a shoe that reads equally at home with tailoring or a slip dress, which has always been part of the Antwerp Six alumnus's appeal. The black leather has a supple, worn-in hand, and the pointed toe gives the silhouette its length. Given the construction and label styling, this pair dates from the designer's early archive, when this hybrid oxford-mule shape appeared across his collections.
Condition: very good, gently worn with supple leather throughout.
