Many fashionistas admire Vetements, but I like fashion clothes and accessories from Ann Demeulemeester more. The brand is not as talked about as Vetements, but it has a long history and rich heritage. Anne Demelmeister started working in the fashion industry back in the 1980s and is very successful.

The demelemeister even in those days denied the division of clothing into smart and casual. The brand's collections combined elements of historical costume, Goths and punks. Only punks from Ann Demeulemeester are not garbage and garbage, but rich connoisseurs of dark aesthetics and stylish thoughtful deconstructivism in clothing.





The main elements of Ann Demeulemeester's style are asymmetry and layering, beautiful draperies and incompletely finished edges of some outfits. Androgynous images can also be seen in the collections, this is very inherent in followers of the gothic and punk. The girl from Ann Demeulemeester looks at the same time gloomy, a little rude and at the same time stylish and graceful. And most importantly, the images from the brand never look squalid.



The new fall-winter 2018-2019 collection from Ann Demeulemeester is made mostly in black. Only 5 models showed white, which is fully consistent with the brand's style. Ann Demelemeister originally used only black and white fabrics. Although the assortment of the brand in boutiques includes things in other shades - beige, shiny silver and gold, and even pink.


The new collection preserves and at the same time reinterprets the heritage of Demelmeister, using a gothic aesthetic, punk style and elements of Japanese culture in clothes and accessories.

We will pay special attention to accessories:

1. High boots. For several seasons in a row, high boots are at the peak of popularity. Some designers even offer lightweight boots with abundant perforations or hybrid shoes for summer, combining elements of gladiator boots and sandals.

2. High long gloves. All models wear gloves above the elbow. This is not a new trend, there were such gloves before, but Ann Demeulemeester gloves look very gothic and at the same time luxurious.

3. Corset belts and weave belts.



In recent years, the fashion world has been actively discussing the Vetements brand and its designer Demna Gvasalia. Someone admires his work, and even calls it a design genius. While there really isn't much to admire, everything we see at Vetements has already been shown by other designers.

If you focus on the latest collection, where Demna Gvasalia writes on his hoodies the well-known message in three letters, it becomes clear that Demna Gvasalia has run out of ideas, and he simply collects everything dubious, shocking, vulgar and wretched from the fashion heritage and interprets in his own style. to keep your attention and sales.
