The Most podcast - Episode 49: Maude Van Dievoet
Episode 49 with Belgian archival fashion entrepreneur, stylist and model Maude Van Dievoet.
Maude is the co-founder of archival designer and vintage store and platform ‘STOF’ (together with Karina Zharmukhambetova) and as a passionate champion of Belgian design she dedicates herself to unearthing extremely rare pieces and making them accessible for new audiences.
Maude talks to host Dominique Nzeyimana about how her parents’ affiliation with the Belgian and international fashion world deeply influenced her. The two also take a deep-dive into Maude’s troublesome high school years, the strategic move that eventually saved her, going to fashion school in Paris and moving to London before finally returning to Antwerp and setting up STOF.

Dominique Nzeyimana explains:
“This is one of those The Most “prodigy” interviews. Maude is still fairly young and STOF is very new. But what strikes me about the store is the knowledgeable selection of the garments. Just this wonderful unearthing of gorgeous archive pieces by Raf Simons, Dirk Van Saene, Veronique Branquinho, Dries Van Noten, A.F. Vandevorst, Ann Demeulemeester and even Hermès from when Martin Margiela was its creative director. And THEN when you look at the price tags, you just think: “OK. Fair!” and sometimes even; “Wow. Nice!”
