The AF Vandevorst contest .
First of all , a BIG thank you to our Fans to collaborate so massively on our first contest . The question : which year did AF Vandevorst presented model X010 for the first time was a tricky one . Most of you answered 2003 . This was indeed the official launch of their seperate shoe collection ‘Fetish’ , but in the winter of 2002 they launched the X010 already . Only 5 people came up with the right answer .
Today we will launch our second contest with some fine Isabel Marant jewelry . Good luck .
AF Vandevorst
An Vandevorst and Filip Arickx meet in 1987, on their first school day at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Ten years later they set up their company Blixa and present their first collection as A.F. Vandevorst in Paris.
The current A.F. Vandevorst line is a complete women’s ready-to-wear line comprising shoes, lingerie, bags and accessories. The ready-to-wear collection is developed and produced with Belgian manufacturers from inception with specific outsourcing in Turkey for certain categories (Jersey). Shoes and accessories are developed and manufactured in Italy. In January 2006 A.F. Vandevorst presents a lingerie and beachwear collection. This collection is manufactured in France and is to be regarded as a research into the classic traditions of ‘corsetterie’.
