The Fall 2025 season of Paris Fashion Week is set to be a season of debuts. Today, the fashion pack gathered to witness the debut womenswear collection of Julian Klausner as Dries Van Noten creative director. Dries Van Noten retired from the label he founded in 1986, back in March 2024, with Klauser announced as his successor in December. The Belgian designer first joined the label in 2018, worked alongside Dries himself and proved himself to be the perfect fit with the unveiling of the Dries Van Noten Fall 2025 collection. At the historic Opéra Garnier, Klausner sent a lineup inspired by the iconic Paris location. The collection struck a balance of archival references and new interpretations, with bold textures, prints and a rich use of color evident throughout.

I hope he can also inject a bit more of his own personality too. A good debut…
