Color and print were strongly featured at Dries van Noten’s Men SS16 show in Paris this week: garments embellished with prints of Marilyn Monroe in her heyday screamed for attention, but this was, otherwise, a clean and mature collection of loose silhouettes, liberally-fitting shirts, high-waist pants, mesh tank tops and suspenders.
