Maison Margiela Artisanal: A Captivating Display of Natty Nomadic Cutting
The latest collection from John Galliano for Maison Margiela Artisanal captivated audiences with its reflective mood and avant-garde designs. Despite a delayed start, the show began with haunting video images projected on a white wall, accompanied by French tunes that set a somber tone.
As the models took to the runway, a sense of deconstructed dandyism permeated the collection. Men sported tunic/tuxedos with garter straps, Edward Scissorhands-inspired sweaters, and uniquely cut blazers. Women were seen in khaki great coats, S&M bustiers resembling flowers, and avant-garde crinolines with hand-painted details.
One consistent element throughout the collection was the use of stenciling, noticeable in a variety of garments including cabans, trench coats, redingotes, and snakeskin dusters. Galliano’s focus on “evolving the facets of nomadic cutting” was evident in each piece, showcasing his creativity and innovation.
Overall, Maison Margiela Artisanal’s latest presentation was a high-energy fashion experience that highlighted Galliano’s unique vision for the brand. This collection is sure to leave a lasting impression on the world of couture.
