Dirk Bikkembergs is one of the Antwerp Six, six highly regarded designers who graduated from The Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 1982. The other five Belgian designers are Ann Demeulemeester, Dries van Noten, Dirk van Saene, Walter van Beirendonck and Marina Yee. The first Dirk Bikkembergs men's collection was shown in 1988.
Early pieces are very hard to come by, and highly sought among collectors.
