Description

Graduating from Antwerp’s Royal Academy of Fine Arts Within the 1980s, Martin Margiela (and his contemporaries Within the Antwerp Six) transformed global fashion together with his aggressive restatement of traditional fashion design and a polemical method to luxury trends. Working first with the home of Gaultier, Margiela absorbed the radical design of Japanese deconstruction, making it wholly his own with the founding of his own label in 1988. Margiela propounds a singular, enigmatic look, moving beyond the recognizable tropes of deconstruction—a monochromatic palette, outsized garments, non-traditional fabrics, exposed seams, or more or less appliquéd details—to develop a completely thought to be worldview, one with elegance, mystery, and menace in equal measure. This book provides an inside have a look at the design process from a craftsman who creates pieces prized for their originality, delicacy, and daring. Within the spirit of Margiela’s garments, the book is a murals in itself, designed exclusively by Margiela and complete with silver inks, ribbon markers, quite a lot of lush paper types, twelve booklets, and an embroidered white-linen cover. This book provides a window onto the intimate, handmade world of a unique designer.
