Maison Margiela: Deconstruction as a House Code

Martin Margiela founded the house in 1988 and built it on the idea that how a garment is made is the most interesting thing about it. Linings become outer layers, shoulders are exposed, and the blank white label is held on by four visible stitches. The approach has outlasted its founder's tenure and still governs the collections, which is why a Margiela piece reads differently to anything else in a wardrobe.

Tabi, Replica and the Footwear Range

Footwear is the clearest entry point. The split-toe Tabi has its own edit in Women's Maison Margiela Tabis, the German Army Trainer reissue sits in Women's Maison Margiela Replica Sneakers, and the pared-back flats are in Maison Margiela Ballerinas. Broader sneaker styles are in Women's Maison Margiela Sneakers and Women's Maison Margiela Futures, with everything gathered in Women Maison Margiela Shoes.

Ready-to-Wear, Bags and MM6

Ready-to-wear in Women Maison Margiela Clothing covers the tailoring, knitwear and the deconstructed pieces the house is known for. The 5AC has its own page in Maison Margiela 5AC Bags, with the full leather range in Women Maison Margiela Bags and smaller pieces in Women Maison Margiela Accessories. The diffusion line runs separately through MM6 Maison Margiela for Women and Women MM6 Maison Margiela Clothing.
