If you have been following the coverage of the Spring '13 shows it was apparent that there was a backlash from the print explosion that was everywhere on the runways in the past few seasons. Many designers did away with prints altogether or went with a seriously sparse black and white palette. It did feel refreshing after the digital print extravanganza, but honestly I can't see myself wanting to dress head to toe in black come Spring.
Thank God for Dries Van Noten just doing his thing as usual, combining prints in a way that makes me want to involve myself in illegal activities just so I could afford an item or two. Come on, one regretful night for those plaid heels doesn't sound too bad.
