Martin Margiela

Good vintage condition. Please see photos for full evaluation.

Hermès hosted 240 guests in Antwerp, mostly journalists from around the world, with Martin Margiela himself overseeing the event behind the scenes.

Guests arrived at the imposing Centraal Station before being taken to a mystery location: the Saint-Félix depot, a former warehouse now home to the city’s archives.

Through a maze of white-walled corridors, they reached a vast function room where models in black and flesh-toned leotards performed Margiela’s signature silhouettes for both Hermès and his own house-an imagined runway brought to life through words and gestures.

The evening ended with a banquet served by more than 100 young attendants dressed in black, at a long table set down the depot’s endless corridor.
In the latter half of the past century, Martin Margiela made his name synonymous with avant-garde and deconstructivism movements in fashion. His label's philosophy lay in absolute creative freedom and independence from the general laws of clothing design: starting from jewelry made out of dyed ice and ending with presentations held on the outskirts of Paris. Throughout his career in the industry, the designer did his utmost to preserve the anonymity behind his image, rarely giving an interview or revealing his face. Even in the group photos of Margiela's team, one chair always remained empty — the one meant for the designer himself.
