Belgian fashion designer, creator and renegade innovator Filip Arickx, also known as the 'F' in A.F.VANDEVORST, joins Dominique Nzeyimana in the loft.
As part of the second wave of Belgian designers alongside Raf Simons, Veronique Branquinho and Jurgi Persoons; A.F.VANDEVORST made Antwerp a fashion mainstay destination in the late 90s.
On this episode, Filip takes Dominique on a journey from being a precocious teen who wanted to be heard (and was, by fabled Antwerp Six member Dirk Bikkembergs) to coming home at the Antwerp Fashion Academy and meeting his future wife/design partner on day one.
Join in as Filip shares the influences that made up the A.F.VANDEVORST aesthetic and the history of self-funding a fashion label to working with investors. You’ll also get the story behind his brand-new endeavour, all-new collaborative platform and adult toy company NIGHTFALL. Detailing its mission and intention, Filip discusses era-defining and elevating pleasure principles to new heights. That and so much more!
