the art of untacking
MMM is tremendous.
He deserves all his success and more for the mountains of influence he's spread. I love everything about the basics. They are some of the most incredible "basics" ever created and if anything, give a fantastic point of reference to all the incredible conceptual work he's produced over so many years. It's like any project. It starts somewhere, it can become wonderful with a little bit of thought and mind altering when you complete the process.
MM is the master of clever and all his work is a testament to that...I'm sure his work and philosophy has been the recipient of more "I wish I thought of that" than anyone else.
I hope you get that billfold if you really like it. I have one like it made of white paper and white tape. So simple it could have be made by a child in pre-school; even better--it was made by an invisible man.

"And ain’t nobody fresher
I’m in Maison, uh, Martin Margiela"
the old played out formula
immortalize a designer by mentioning their name in your song
pretty they dont understand that at Margiela's core, he is against everything like that.........“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”

I know, friends are joining his facebook page and everything, wouldn't mind but they don't have a clue about the brand or what it stands for, own any of the clothes and just because its now cool amongst people who like to be cool they join the page.
Think its interesting to note how they stress that this was the last thing he over saw before leaving, which is an official admission in a way that company the is nothing without the man himself and that anything they do is only of worth if he oversaw it. My view is he had nothing to do with the perfume and that it was this that drove him out more than something he was activily involved in. A bottle of perfume is so anti martin margielas thinking it doesn't even bear talking about.
Even the shape of the bottle. Martin Margiela would probably present it in a urine sample bottle if he had his way.
Also (untilted), such a bad interpretation. Martin Margiela would never have called it that either. On a more positive note, would be great to see reissues of his clothes though.Last edited by pierce; 01-16-2010, 03:30 PM.

In my mind there are three brands in the fashion industry, whose products are so linked to the minds of the designers that it becomes impossible for them to continue any meaningful work without those designers being there.
Margiela, with CdG and Chalayan being the other two.........
this Fragrance is a testament of my perspective, as no true Margiela fragrance would ever exist in a bottle like that, with his name on it
when I envision a Margiela fragrance, from what I know about this company, I envision something like this
“You know,” he says, with a resilient smile, “it is a hard world for poets.”
