ANN DEMEULEMEESTER SPRING 09

Designing since 1987, Ann DeMeulemeester is well known for her organic and unusual take on modern fashion. Through the 80s, 90s and the new millennium, DeMeulemeester has marched to her own drummer and has stood out as a designing maverick. Her most recent collection for Spring 2009, which she showed at Paris fashion week, was full of her signature style. The free form dresses and extreme gladiator sandals were topped off with modern jewelry and even a few dapper suits for men. Once again, Ann’s creations are to die for and one of a kind.
