Dries Van Noten, born in Antwerp in 1958, is one of the most influential Belgian fashion designers of the past four decades. As a member of the legendary Antwerp Six, he helped put Belgium on the global fashion map with his unique vision and uncompromising creativity.
Profiel shares a special bond with Dries Van Noten – Our founder and mother, Mieke, believed in his work from the very beginning, long before he achieved international acclaim. From his earliest collections, we have admired his talent and shared his passion for craftsmanship, layered silhouettes, and rich materials. This makes us not just a retailer, but a part of living fashion history.
In 1986, the same year Profiel opened its doors, Van Noten launched his own label, now renowned for bold prints, complex colour combinations, and cultural influences. His creations blend luxury with wearability and are presented on the global stage at Paris Fashion Week.
Although he announced his retirement in 2024, his legacy lives on – in the collections, and in the hearts of fashion lovers around the world. His designs remain timeless, artistic, and powerful – just like the trust we’ve placed in him since day one.
