Clothes are rarely what they appear chez Margiela. A case in point: 3D trompe l’oeil zippers and buttons achieved using a technique involving silicone moulds. Much of this minimal collection was constructed from rectangles of fabric.
The more experimental pieces, such as tailored jackets and leather outerwear, had an armor-like stiffness, especially blazers fronted with leather panels resembling waistcoats and a gladiator-style grid jacket, built from brown leather strips. Less conceptual fare also stood out, including a terrific tuxedo jacket, loose and summery pants and a trench coat.
