I have to say, I am constantly amused or impressed by the quirkiness of Margiela's accessories. Not all of them work, and not all of them are to my taste, but I admire the wealth of ideas that go into creating them. And if one thinks about it, all they really do is just regard their surroundings and proceed thence. Here is a sample of FW06 stuff, from maisonmartinmargiela.com

Re: Martin Margiela accessories FW06
Truly fascinating stuff.I'm on a huge leather-kick right now (which equates to thrift shopping for decent stuff, but whatever) and I'm really loving this.Like you said, Faust, not all of it works, per say, but the imagination that's gone into it is extensive to say the least. Overall, I'd kill a man for one or two of those bags.

Re: Martin Margiela accessories FW06
Anybody knows which makers Margiela employs for his accessories?
I also find them quite fascinating, I love that they're as much about the idea (elevating the mundane to high art status) as the craftmanship and physicality of the piece. By the way wasn't Margiela the/one of the originator of the whole "arte poverta" in fashion movement by his recycling of everyday objects, something he still does for his accessories?Selling CCP, Harnden, Raf, Rick etc.
