Maison Martin Margiela SS07

[nqth]

Despite the bluring of my pictures:-P the cut was sharp and precise. I still have a wierd feeling this is not MMM (too much skin), and this is very MMM (cuts and shape) at the same time:-)

This ^looked likea JPG corset, but MMM made it flat - trompe l'oeil print in a beige body.

^ the aka "body became dress become body" (CdG) but more imagineable.

Flat, sharp and very graphic cut.

I think it is the most tailored collection in Paris, despite all the half trouser, half body and half everything:-)

The showtook place at the great hall of École Nationale Supérieure du Beaux-Arts. Butit was very crowded. The curtains only made it more "claustrofobic". When theypulled them up,MMM staff came out with models, it was great:-)

Thank yoy so much for sharing the pictures nqth.

Is this a collection to re-visit his 2-D asethetics? You mentioned they are flat?

and I always like the white in MMM...every time I think of it it makes me want to wear a lab coat.

You are welcome, Buckwheat.

I don't know if it is a 2D inspired collection, tho. Mayby bc the body with the built-ins, and the blouse that looked like it was cut from a round piece of fabric, of the silky smooth surface of the fabrics, but "hard as steel" feel(no draping or even folding)....

It doen't look "constructed" at all, but very miminalistic and sharply cut.

very interesting. I guess I have to see more pictures to get the idea.

BTW I just visited your blog (too bad I couldn't read [:D]) but very cool pictures you have on there. I will go back and take a look again...have to go out to lunch now.
