Delphine Quirin
Delphine QuirinMore Info
The trunks belonging to Delphine Quirin’s grandmother were veritable treasure chests when she was a child. The dresses, suits and costumes that they contained would later go on to provide the future designer with an important source of inspiration. And already as a child, hats stood out above everything else as a thing of wonder.
History of Art studies completed later in life at the University of Liège left Delphine with a real store of data and a clear preference for the talents of artists as diverse as Vermeer, De La Tour and Edward Hopper.
After training as a fashion designer, Delphine set up her own design business in 1996 and started creating her first hats – unique and tailor-made creations essentially to accompany formal dress. She then opened a shop in the historic centre of Liège and continued to create the framework for what would soon become not just a business but an expression of her personality. Being open to a wide range of influences, she soon discovered knitting and this then gradually become her preferred production technique. She really played a trump card in Paris in 1999 when she drew attention to a mini-collection of gloves and scarves – and of course hats – created out of mohair and boiled wool.
Delphine had found her niche! She was now creating regular collections, and presenting and selling them at large trade fairs in several European countries, as well as in the US and Japan.
By following her instincts and desires, Delphine has reached her goal. She has elevated the hat back to its rightful position of elegance, saving it from the stagnation of long-produced designs. She has made it a practical and light daily accessory that can be worn in all circumstances. Delphine’s hats are a subtle mix of colours and designs, reflecting our own contemporary mix of cultures and ideas. And although they do not follow ephemeral fashion trends, they are in tune with the world around them and each piece tells its own story
Delphine is proud of her Liège roots and refuses to use industrial production methods. Her hats are made using traditional techniques by a small team of knitters, embroiderers and seamstresses, enabling her to oversee all the production stages, and at the same time, to take meticulous care in order to ensure that all of her knits are perfectly finished.

Deltracon was founded in 1990 by Rudy & Kathleen Delchambre. In 2013 their daughter, Darline, also started working in the company.
We produce linen fabrics for sheers, drapery, upholstery and wallcovering. Some or our fabrics are also used for bed- and table linen. Plains, dobbies, jacquards and embroidered fabrics are produced in 140/150 or 300 cm. Using natural noble materials has always been our passion.
In 2009 we took over a Belgian trimming company and renamed it Flanders’ Trimmings.
This company produces high quality trimmings & tiebacks/tassels.
After the unfortunate demise of Van Maele Weavers in October 2018, Deltracon decided not to let Van Maele’s history go lost since it suited so well with its’ own.
We purchased 10 weaving looms with 24 shafts, the entire yarn stock, archives and the Van Maele name.
These additional looms will enable Deltracon to produce more complicated dobby designs and paperbacked wallcoverings.
Deltracon treasures the past, present and is especially looking to the future since now a complete range of home furnishing fabrics can be offered.

Q&A with dries van noten
When did you know that designing clothes was your path & passion?
There was a certain logic to my choice as my family had been involved in fashion and the garment business for generations. My father created one of Belgium’s most innovative retailers of ‘Pret-a-Porter’ and my grandfather was a tailor. I inherited my love of garment making, its traditions and rituals, from these men and my mother. Family immersed me in the craft and skill of fabrics, impassioned me with the power of flair and style for women and men that fired my quest to explore and question the subjectivity of “beauty” and the role it would play in my life. My family was very supportive and encouraged me to continue its fashion tradition. I regularly accompanied my parents to Paris and Milan on their many buying trips for collections. Though they had imagined I might take over the retail business, that I was passionate to become a fashion designer came as a great surprise to them.
What is your design signature?
I see a garment as a singular item of excellence that is part of a larger story told, firstly, within a designer’s vision for a collection and ultimately as part of the final wearer’s expression of their style through their wardrobe. My joy is to create a garment that fuses and balances beauty, craft and function, a garment that can perform well and continue in time to become part of life’s story. I enjoy juggling with colours, textures and light in a way that evokes rather than provokes.
Where do you come up with your best ideas?
The spark of inspiration for the narrative a collection rarely ever comes in the same way. The initial idea can sometimes come quickly and remain constant throughout the design process… occur on a walk in my garden, encountering a painting or the life and work of an artist. It can be something rarefied or ordinary, for example, suddenly looking at something that has surrounded me every day and seeing it in a different way that inspires. It can be a photograph in a book or a magazine, a re-read passage in a loved book, a conversation with friends or my design team or a piece of music. For other collections the story is more of a journey, deliberate, considered, and evolves through time and the design process. Anything can be that spark that ignites the creative process. What I have learned is that one recognises the spark when it happens, it may not be too planned, be ‘of its time’ and is more emotional than cerebral.
Is there a difference between style and fashion?
Of course, style comes from within..
What colour or fabric would you never use?
None actually! Often, challenging myself to work with colours, fabrics, or forms that I have disliked and bringing them into a collection can be an important aspect of the creative process.
What is beauty?
The idea of beauty is supremely subjective and very personal. Time also plays a role when our view on what is beautiful to us evolves. A flower, a building or a garment can be a thing of wonder for one while leaving another completely indifferent. What was beautiful to us even recently may be ugly today. Luckily, all designers have their own eye on and language of beauty.
What is ugliness?
It resonates in the same way as beauty for me. It is exciting when the formerly ugly becomes beautiful.

Deleye
DeleyeMore Info
Hello, We are DELEYE
In 1936, Gaston Deleye opened a tailor’s shop in Roeselare. He was the founder of what is now one of the leading fashion stores in West Flanders. Clothing and fashion were instilled in him from an early age, and the tailoring tradition grew into retail, leading Freddy Deleye, along with Monique and their three children, to establish Deleye in 1989. A second shop was opened in Bruges three years later, and finally, in 1995, together with Rika, we opened a third shop in Kuurne.
As the Deleye family, we strongly believe in our company and in the future. We are constantly innovating, and in 2013, we took a significant step towards omnichannel with the launch of our webshop. That’s why we, the entire Deleye family, are very convinced of our father’s motto: “We’ll do our part.”
In addition to our easily accessible locations with free parking, you can also shop online 24/7 through our webshop. At Deleye, we prioritize quality, a wide selection, service, and customer service. Our top-notch team is ready to assist our customers, both in our locations and through our webshop, providing advice and support whenever needed.

Diane Steverlynck
Diane SteverlynckMore Info
Diane Steverlynck lives and works in Brussels, Belgium.
After a pedagogical degree in Fine Arts and her graduation at the Textile Design department of the Ecole Nationale des Arts Visuels de la Cambre in Brussels, in 2003, she set up her studio.
Since then, she follows a specific approach centered on the creative potential and transversal nature of textile. Her work focusses on the specificities of materials, structures and the process of making, involving the use and identity of everyday objects.
Rather than a formal will, the shape, aesthetic and poetry of the created objects, results from a care and attention for the materials they are made of, as much as the gestures and stories that they suggest, both in their use and in their manufacturing process. Cross breeding heterogeneous cultural references, her creations respond to universal uses while carrying the trace of collective and personal memories.
Beside her self-initiated productions, she runs collaborative projects with designers, artists and architects. Her presence at international shows has led to collaborations with carpet and furnishing editors such as : Limited Edition (Be), Ligne Roset (Fr), Objekten (Be), Superette (Lu), Trico (Jp) . In 2014, she founded the label laend together with the duo Chevalier-Masson.
Diane’s work is represented by the Valerie Traan gallery in Antwerp and has been part of exhibitions at the Stedelijk Museum S’Hertogenbosch, Centre d’Innovation et du Design Grand-Hornu, the Atomium Brussels, the Ghent Design Museum, the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam and more.
Since 2006, she is a teacher at the textile design department of the Koninklijke Academie voor Schone Kunsten (KASK), School of Arts in Ghent.

About us
For the past three decades, we have been best friends and share many passions in various areas: sports, games, adventures, movies and music, interesting conversations, food and drink, etc. Our interests have of course evolved since we were teenagers, but one element has always remained at the forefront: conviviality.
A warm and convivial atmosphere can be found in many activities, but when you boil it down to its essence, you often arrive at the following basic elements: sharing food and drink, having fun conversations, and fire.
It is therefore no coincidence that barbecues are so popular around the world.
Conviviality
Enjoying life to the fullest, but always respecting the world that surrounds us. And since the beginning of our friendship, we agreed that the best way to have fun is to share the best moments with others. Not only do you reinforce the intensity of the moment, but you can relive it many times afterwards, based on the stories you keep bringing up. So we are friends with a nice bag of shared memories and stories. And the icing on the cake is that these stories were often shared with numerous other wonderful friends. Memories are the very last important treasures that can be taken from a person. Therefore, build that wealth as best and as long as possible.
Finding the balance
Consumption seems to have become an addiction among an increasing number of people. We
want more and it has to be cheaper. Quality and durability have for many years been neglected characteristics of many commodities. Ecological and ethical problems have too often become the consequence of the search for lower prices.
Fortunately, more and more people have begun to realize that things cannot go on like this. Opposed to over-consumption is the concept of minimalism. As ‘bon-vivants’, we wanted to find a balance between the two. We believe that it should still be possible to enjoy ‘well-considered’ purchases.
That’s why we want to offer you products made of durable, quality materials. We choose timeless designs that you won’t easily tire of. And we look for partners who can guarantee us that they produce in an ecological and ethical way (through different certification labels and ISO standards).
