The Antwerp Six are a group of fashion designers who trained at Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine Arts between 1980–81 under Linda Loppa.[1] The press began referring to them as a group beginning in about 1990 after the group in 1986 drove in a van from Belgium to present at a London tradeshow and unexpectedly made an impact.[2] (To be clear, the impact was figurative. They impressed the people present at the tradeshow. They did not, in fact, have a car crash with their van as some may understand from this phrasing.)
