Martin Margiela - Designer

oh! i saw that one page that said marina wears all clothes...

ah well,guess i'm not insane afterall..hehe
 
I don't know if anyone here has had an opportunity to try the MMM 1 jeans but I just did and (as a jean person) I give these a major thumbs up. construction and choice of material is really impressive. the fit is now my favorite jean ever, very skinny calves but mid-waisted and cut perfectly proportioned for a woman.

DEANNA FERRETTI
-Entrepreneur-

Deanna Ferretti Veroni started her career in Reggio Emilia, Italy more than 30 years ago. She has since then successfully collaborated with some of the most important designers of this past century. She met Kenzo when she was barely 25 years old and with him she worked successfully for over 20 years. During the 70's she collaborated with Yves Saint Laurent (Tricot e Variation), Rena Kraft, Chiwitt, Frapp, Luis London, Blaky Dress, Giorgio Correggiari, Popy Moreni and Michelle Bruyere.In the 80's she started to have her first licences with Adrienne Vittadini, Armani and Joseph. Their collections were drawn by John Galliano and John Richmond.In the 90's, she worked for Martin Margiela, Gai Mattiolo, Valentino, Neil Barret and for many others brands. She has a wide experience in textiles and knitwear but she cannot be called neither a fashion designer nor simply a business woman. Actually, she is an atypical figure born for realise almost every designer's dream.
Now, every three or four years her company supports a new young talent, because Miss Deanna is a symbol of originality and quality.

Martin Margiela to Exit Margiela?
By ERIC WILSON
The big rumor floating around the Paris shows this week is that Martin Margiela, the influential and enigmatic designer, is preparing his final disappearing act. Over the last year, Mr. Margiela, known as fashion’s “Invisible Man” because he never gives interviews and has rarely been photographed, has told colleagues that he wants to stop designing and that he has begun a search for his successor at the house.

In one move that has set off intense speculation about the company’s future, Mr. Margiela, who is 51, initiated a meeting here early this year with Raf Simons, another well-regarded Belgian designer who was renegotiating his contract with Jil Sander at the time. According to executives associated with each designer, who requested anonymity out of respect for Mr. Margiela’s wishes to remain private about his plans, Mr. Simons had discussed the possibility of replacing Mr. Margiela, but nothing came of that conversation.

Ultimately, Mr. Simons renewed his contract to remain at Jil Sander for an additional three years.

“Helmut (Lang) and Martin have had a big impact on me, but beyond that I cannot tell you anything,” said Mr. Simons, who declined to comment when asked about his conversation at a fashion show on Sunday.

The rumors about Mr. Margiela’s desire to leave fashion reached a fever pitch at the shows over the weekend as the Maison Martin Margiela prepared for its spring runway show on Monday night, which will mark the 20th anniversary of the house. Suzy Menkes, reporting in Monday’s International Herald Tribune, writes that two designers have been in talks with Renzo Rosso, the chief executive of Diesel Group, which bought Mr. Margiela’s business in 2002. She did not identify the designers and it was not clear whether Mr. Simons was one of those.

But she includes an intriguing comment from Mr. Rosso, who said, “We are very happy with Martin but for a long time he has a strong team and does not work on the collection, just special projects.”

If Mr. Margiela truly has not been involved in the recent collections, an assertion that appears to be debatable, it would prove his longstanding point – and the reason he has maintained his silence – that the clothes are greater than the creator.
