Scottish actor Alan Cumming, expressed: “I think there always should be an element of an artist’s sensibility in clothes, otherwise we would all just wear the same thing.” In this case, eccentric equals expensive and you will need to prepare your purse for to acquire pieces from this collection. Trompe l’oeil plexiglass heels, over-sized peacoats, deconstructed dresses, and surrealist accessories, the collection is intended to function as a synopsis of Margiela’s history with each piece being labeled with a tag indicating the season from which it originated, spanning 23 years since the Maison’s founding.
