Fantastic.
I saw a lot of Consuelo’s Marni in it but I dont mind it. The menswear flows perfectly with the womenswear.
Milan is not always that great when it comes to luxury brands but the contemporary brands from N21 to MM6 or even Sunnei are always interesting.

Diluted as hell.

Margiela Light (Now with only 10% Martin DNA in every item!!).

 

[Cocteau Stone]

Diluted sure, but it's MM6. Over the years that's been it's selling point to the masses. I'd personally rather buy MM6 than mainline Margiela. Less overwrought and can at least work better in the wardrobe. This collection has a very perverted sexy secretarial look to a lot of pieces and yet it doesn't go into annoying "office siren" territory which is quiet interesting.

I wonder if Glenn will be having an influence over MM6 or if it is more a design team gig? When Galliano was at Margiela, you never sensed his influence over this side of things.

I am sorry to say it here because I love Margiela, but:
you open the Etro thread and you think you are at Cavalli
you open Cavalli and you think it is Versace
you open Fendi and it is like old Prada
Moschino is like Loewe
and so on and so on.

At MM6 you take the sunglasses off, and 80% of the looks you don't know exactly which brand is.

The only one that got that straight is Simone at Jil Sander.

There should be in general more thought in how to convey the spirit and identity of the house.
It all ends up looking a big magma of clothes.

And when you'll open Versace, you'll wish you didn't.

Never. It was always a different team

Maybe but Heikki Salonen is still the « CD ».

do they feed of the mainline's looks at all or just operate completely sepertely?

It has always been separated.
It was intended to be « more commercial » as it was about reworking and experimenting about ideas explored in the main or artisanal lines. Even when Martin was a the helm, it was separated but complementary.
The teams are separated and therefore they show in different cities.
While Martin oversaw all the lines even if they already had a separated team for MM6, it became really separated and a big entity of it own when he left.

So neither John and now Glenn are involved in this. Even if they all reference Margiela they do not feed off each other. I think it was pretty obvious during John’s era.

ahh thanks for clearing that, was always unclear for me how the 2 worked.
