    His work definitely influenced Japanese street fashion at the time, I see a lot of FRUiTS magazine photos with his stuff in them

    Walter sadly left the Antwerp academy of fine arts in june 2022, where he was the head of the fashion department and tought in the third year. He continues designing for his own brand because: "in my head I don't feel retired yet" - Walter

    as a teen, i had the chance to purchase a Beirendonck backpack, it was black rubber, folded, melted and riveted into shape. it was $600, but i still think about it today. he was the coolest to me.

    I collect W< and yeah the prices right now suck.. When I started collecting a few years ago it was a lot easier to get affordable second hand W<. I honestly think that there is some small hype around W< considering the prices now. I used to get the tops for 90usd and now they can sell for 300usd. I still love the pieces I have, I dont get to wear them as often as I used to. Anyway big up on the W< video :)

    I'd love to see a video about NIGO and his work. He's such an inspiration to me with his interests and inspirations. He's an ultimate collector nerd but also extremely respected in the fashion and hip hop world.

    I passionately agree about most runway shows being really boring and overly traditional. There's literally so many interesting ways you can display clothing on the human body to just have people walk in a uniform manner feels like a waste.
    Have been wanting to get more into Walter for a while, appreciate this video brodie!

    I live in Antwerp and am friends with plenty of the fashion/ ex-fashion students! Super funny hearing you talk about the transition from walter to brandon as i am hearing about it/watching it in real time . :) Like the vids!!! I'm curious to see where you've decided to study instead of Antwerp, CSM?

      Well I was mostly talking about W< until the end and the only criticism I found against him is the BOF article in relation to the student suicide at Antwerp. I don't have personal experience with him and don't feel like there is enough info or evidence for me to justify criticising him. If you know other sources do let me know.
