This tour will start at 11:30 a.m. in the entrance hall of the beautiful ModeMuseum where our guide will give us an introduction to Belgian fashion. The group will then leave the museum for a guided walk past designer shops in the area of the museum. This includes such well known international designers as Dries Van Noten, Walter Van Beirendonck, Veronique Branquinho, A.F. Vandevorst and Martin Margiela. After this walk, you’ll have insider knowledge about Antwerp – THE fashion city.
The tour lasts about one-and-a-half hours and ends at 1:00 p.m., leaving the whole afternoon free for those who want to do more than window shop.
For those who are interested, an informal lunch is planned in a lovely restaurant in the historic center of Antwerp. Details will follow.
