Goodbye to Paris
From Paris to Brussels by train? Brussels is only 160 miles (and 80 minutes) from Paris (by rail) – so the Rail Europe option is a no-brainer. The Paris Gare du Nord station is a 10 minute walk from the Kube Hotel and unless you are toting a trunk, there is no need to take a taxi.
More Than a Station
Built 1861-1864 and designed by the French architect Jacques Hittorff in the Beaux-Arts (neoclassical) style, the Paris Gare du Nord station is located in the 10th arrondissement. The building is enormous and there are so many entrances that it is easy to get lost. Look (ask if necessary) for the entrance to the building and getting to the correct platform for the train to Brussels is simple…Entering by any other door will lead to parts unknown!

Dries Van Noten came into the pandemic guns blazing, making a bold call last spring for the fashion system to fully rewire itself. More than a year later, it seems, he’s taking things more moment by moment. Speaking after showing his Spring 2022 collection, I asked what he feels has changed for him over the past year. He said everyone gained a new appreciation of intimacy: “We discovered how precious it can be to see just one person.”
And it’s true that everything has gotten more personable designers from Jonathan Anderson to Thom Browne have been feeling that, too, and the idea animated Van Noten’s Spring 2022 collection. “It’s the first collection where you really feel [that] the starting point was being in lockdown,” he said. “When I started to talk to my creative team about the collection, the word we were always using was ‘outburst’ outburst of joy and fun.”
