Quoted:

“Being considered and labeled a ‘Belgian’ designer is an integral part of my story. It is something I wear with pride, lightly, and is in no way a burden. It is always more pleasant however when it is used to describe rather than ‘box in’. Maybe we have finally got ‘what we were wishing for…’ Fashion is now a global phenomenon rather than simply a ‘national one’. The globalization of images and aspirations has gone a long way to making this the case.”
– Dries Van Noten, 2008 Interview with Filep Motwary
