DRIES CRIEL
As part of the Extensions collection by Dries Criel, I co-created and produced two unique accessories: a handcrafted leather belt and a luxury pouch. These pieces reflect Dries’ signature architectural aesthetic, while carrying my own design approach rooted in Belgian craftsmanship and timeless elegance.
Design & Vision
The belt and pouch were conceived as extensions of the body — objects that blur the line between functionality and ornament. Inspired by the clean lines and sculptural qualities of Dries’ jewelry, each piece was designed to complement his universe while offering a wearable statement of understated luxury.
Materials & Craftsmanship
Made from carefully selected premium leather, each detail was refined with precision: from the cut of the hide to the choice of closures and finishes. The production was entrusted to specialized ateliers, ensuring the highest level of artisanal quality and durability. The result is a limited-edition creation that embodies both strength and elegance.
A Timeless Extension
Both the belt and pouch go beyond the traditional accessory. They are timeless, functional, and versatile objects that express identity and individuality. Worn as part of Dries Criel’s Extensions line, they echo the body and become a natural part of one’s personal style.
