Dries Van Noten Brocade coat

Dries Van Noten's reputation for painterly prints and rich textiles is perfectly expressed in this brocade coat. Its defining feature is the multicoloured, metallic weave that creates a dynamic, light-catching surface. The piece offers a sophisticated way to introduce bold pattern and texture into a curated wardrobe.

The art of the detail

The coat is crafted from a substantial brocade fabric, blended with cotton for structure, featuring a vibrant blue and multicoloured pattern. Cut to a clean, straight silhouette, it’s defined by a classic point collar and a simple buttoned front, allowing the opulent textile to remain the focus. The design is a testament to the brand's mastery of fabric and form, resulting in a piece that is both impactful and impeccably constructed.

How to wear

Layer this brocade coat over a minimalist black dress with heeled mules for an elegant evening at a gallery opening or a special dinner. For a more creative daytime approach, style it with tailored wide-leg trousers and a simple silk top, creating a polished ensemble for industry events or formal luncheons. The coat’s versatile length works well with both dresses and separates.
