THE 30TH COLLECTION
CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF NV
Between softness and sharpness.
Between nostalgia and a fresh look forward.
Familiar, but not the way you'd expect.
The AW26 collection carries an unabashed belief in the power of imagination.
WRONG IS RIGHT
This season we celebrate our 15th anniversary with this 30th collection, and you can feel it in the power, the perfect balance between wearability & exuberance, and a confidence that builds on years of experience.
Classic silhouettes are pulled loose from their familiar frame and reassembled. Folklore elements translated into something contemporary, playful and unexpected. Shirts literally shift perspective, with displaced collars and unexpected necklines that give classics just that extra twist. Do your own thing, wear your shirt back to front.
A gala dress gets a houndstooth blazer thrown over it. Every piece is designed without a fixed destination and invites freedom. Worn differently, combined differently, read differently. Your wardrobe as a playground.
TEXTURE AS A COLOUR
Colour brings tension. Emerald green, poppy pink and soft lavender clash softly against a broad range of navy, plum and cumin.
Textures reinforce that contrast. Silky fabrics shine against woollen structures and graphic knits. Soft corduroy next to glossy patent leather. A floral jacquard next to crisp cotton stripes.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Skirts and dresses make a comeback. The established classics from the collection are joined by new models, from a short shiny patent leather A-line skirt to a casual oversized shirt dress.
And among the newcomers: trousers. Lots of trousers. In silhouettes that move between boyish and outspoken feminine, depending on how you wear them.
PLAY ON
The denim pieces got a new wash, but keep the same playfulness. Trompe-l'oeil pockets, surprising volumes, snap buttons in the side seam that let you switch between barrel and wide-leg trousers. Familiar material, with an unexpected result.
BLACK LABEL
The unisex Black Label continues to grow into a fully-fledged branch within the collection. Alongside refined essentials for men, the line includes an ever-widening range of unisex pieces. Designed to combine and interchange.
LIMITED EDITION KNITWEAR
Later this season, a campaign drop follows with limited edition knitwear, knitted by an iconic Belgian knitwear specialist and long-standing partner of, among others, Dries Van Noten and Walter Van Beirendonck.
Central to it is Dreams for Sale: a playful nod to the unguarded imagination of childhood. We take you into a world where fantasy gets the upper hand.
PROUDLY MADE IN…
Craftsmanship remains the foundation. Behind every piece lies a conscious choice: why is something made where it's made? The collection brings together the expertise of various workshops, each with their own specialisation.
From Belgian craftsmanship to denim production in Tunisia. Each with respect for knowledge, material and origin. No anonymous production, but partnerships where pride and trust are central.
