Overview

Essentiel Antwerp celebrates its 25 years. Going off-piste since 1999, the label was founded as an antidote to the minimalistic and monochromatic fashion scene. With an extensive ready-to-wear, every collection articulates the brand's unapologetic, down-to earth DNA. Expect an abundance of maximalist designs that merge unabashed femininity with comfort and wearability. Designed in Antwerp, Essentiel Antwerp is an ode to play. Life's too short for minimalism. Vibrant colors, bold prints and unexpected juxtapositions that raise smiles, that's the Essentiel Antwerp signature. This stunning volume contains an ornamental clothes peg, nestled within the pages of the book.
