Belgian born and studied designer Christian Wijnants is quietly doing some impressive work. Wijnants has been a professor at the Royal Academy of Antwerp, his alma mater, since 2005 while showing two collections a year. Wijnants' collections are intellectual, but never lose sight of the ultimate goal: to help women look beautiful. As Belgians go, Wijnants is Margiela like in his proclivity to experiment with graphics and colors and silhouettes rather than establishing a recognizable look with his work (a la Yamamoto or Owens).
His Fall 2008 collection lookbook is now online.
