designer find : Maison Martin Margiela

Founded by the unconventional Martin Margiela, Maison Martin Margiela is a pioneering label in deconstructionist design. Minimal and simple creating beauty. Working in completely white studios, where even the light fixtures were draped in white fabric, Margiela revolted against conventional fashion with over-long sleeves and exposed seams and linings and famously redesigned unusual objects like wigs and silk scarves into couture garments. Truly avant-guard.
