Dries Van Noten Archive 90s Cream Cardigan with Frog Closure Strings | Size M

An extraordinary piece of contemporary fashion history: archive Dries Van Noten cardigan from the mid-to-late 1990s.

This garment perfectly embodies the Belgian designer's mastery in integrating traditional and ethnic sartorial elements with minimalist and elegant knitwear. Made from heavy cream-colored cotton knit, the cardigan stands out for its striking oriental-inspired front closure with frogging (frogs) and cotton ribbon ties, embellished with intricate corded Savoyard embroidery along the fastening points.

• Chinese Closure / Frog Closure: Front fastening system with 4 pairs of ties/ribbons to be knotted.

• Embroidered Details: Raised corded Savoyard/spiral embroidery positioned at the anchoring points of the ties.
