Graduating from Antwerp's Royal Academy of Fine Arts in the 1980s,
Martin Margiela (and his contemporaries in the Antwerp Six)
transformed global fashion with his aggressive restatement of
traditional fashion design and a polemical approach to luxury
trends. Working first with the house 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 roughly appliqued
details--to develop a fully considered worldview, one with
elegance, mystery, and menace in equal measure. This book provides
an inside look at the design process from a craftsman who creates
pieces prized for their originality, delicacy, and daring. In the
spirit of Margiela's garments, the book is a work of art in itself,
designed exclusively by Margiela and complete with silver inks,
ribbon markers, a variety 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.
