If you get past the sci-fi Geisha styling, John Galliano actually served quite a few classically tailored pieces for this Maison Margiela Spring 2016 ready-to-wear offering. The silhouettes were for the most part ‘50s inspired but he gave the vintage look a contemporary update with silver metallic and cat-print accents.
