RONALD VAN DER KEMP FALL 2016 COUTURE

“I knew too much about the fashion industry – I wanted to go against it,” says Ronald van der Kemp. After 25 years working for fashion houses including Michael Kors, Céline, Escada and Wolford, the Dutch designer launched his own demi-couture label, RVDK, creating one-off garments using fabrics from vintage stores, old couturiers and leather manufacturers.
