Dirk Bikkembergs 90s Lace Through Jacket

Dirk Bikkembergs was one of the Antwerp Six, the group of Royal Academy graduates who put Belgian fashion on the international map in the late 1980s. Through the 90s he developed lacing into a signature structural device, most famously on the 1993 boots that dropped their eyelets and ran the lace through a hole drilled in the sole. This vintage jacket carries the same lace through idea onto clothing, with the lacing threaded through the garment itself.
