Maison Martin Margiela is one of the most innovative luxury fashion houses for women and
men. Founded in 1988, it is appreciated for its tendency to overturn the canons of the world of fashion, with garments that are proportionally too large and feature hems, linings and
stitching on the outside. Martin Margiela has never shown himself to the public, not even
after his fashion shows - there are no official pictures of him and he mainly communicates
via fax. He so much avoids the spotlight that the New York Times called Margiela 'fashion's
invisible man'.
