Founded in 1985 & part of the iconic Antwerp Six—graduates of Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine arts in the 1980’s who defined a new wave of European fashion—Ann Demeulemeester's Victorian-inspired vision has been at the forefront of avant-garde clothing for over 30 years. In 2013 Ann D announced her departure from the industry, passing the torch to Sebastien Meunier, Ludovic de Saint Sernin, and now Stefano Gallici. With a refined, poetic approach to tailoring and an instinct for fluid identity, Gallici has reinterpreted the brand's legacy with quiet innovation and emotional depth.
