Dries Van Noten Expands Lipstick Line
Dries Van Noten continues to expand its creative universe with the latest additions to its beauty line. Following the launch of Dries Van Noten Beauty in March 2022, the brand has remained committed to translating its distinctive aesthetic into collectable makeup essentials. This season, two new lipstick shades, Cool Brown and Abstract Red, join the existing range, accompanied by limited-edition Amethyst Shadow and Amber Jungle cases.
The latest additions maintain the brand’s signature approach—unexpected colour combinations and intricate design details. Abstract Red is a bold, luminous shade with sheer, buildable coverage, while Cool Brown offers a muted, sophisticated beige with a matte, velvety finish. Both lipsticks are formulated with nourishing ingredients, including rosehip oil, apricot butter, and mango butter, ensuring hydration and comfort throughout wear.
Dries Van Noten’s lipstick cases continue to be a defining feature of the collection. Designed with a high-contrast mix of patterns and colours, they reflect the brand’s avant-garde approach to fashion. The Amber Jungle case juxtaposes a rich orange stone pattern with leopard spots in violet, while Amethyst Shadow features a striking purple mineral motif against yellow and black graphics. The cases are refillable and incorporate recyclable Zamak elements for a sustainable yet luxurious touch.
To celebrate the launch, artist Gill Button has contributed a new drawing to the series of portraits accompanying Dries Van Noten Beauty. These artistic interpretations capture the intimate, expressive nature of the collection while reinforcing the brand’s distinctive identity.
Launching on July 1, 2024, the two new lipstick shades will be available at Harvey Nichols Kuwait and Bloomingdale’s Reem Mall in Abu Dhabi.
