The Demeulemeester show was located in what I think was an old school in St. German. It suited the show very well. We got everything we could expect out of an Ann D show, dark, black and gloomy. But there was also something warm. Amongst the dark wool blended, leather and feathered creations there were red (with a touch of orange) leather coats and pants - a nice and perhaps also unexpected contrast. Demeulemeester made her girls wear A LOT of feathers. There were feathered vests, feathers under sleeves and jacket linings. I also loved the leather "chain mail", made of long strips of braided leather. You can see it on the top picture. What was also fascinating was the hair. It was tightly pulled back into a messed up bun which reminded of feathers. They were styled with a lot of wet gel at the sides, something I thought would resemble the shimmer of the feather.
