The Six

Forty years ago, six young fashion designers from Antwerp conquered the international catwalks and changed the fashion landscape forever. With their avant-garde designs, Walter Van Beirendonck, Ann Demeulemeester, Dries Van Noten, Dirk Bikkembergs, Dirk Van Saene and Marina Yee België have placed at the top of the international fashion world. They quickly became known as De Zes van Antwerpen, a label that, despite their divergent visions, made them a mythical unity. But was that group identity reality or primarily a construction of the outside world? In THE SIX they share their personal stories, vision of fashion, the impact of their friendship and the lasting influence they left behind worldwide.
