MARTIN MARGIELA fall/winter 2007/8

The minimal construction of a tube.

Her Tube is made of 50cm (!) shoulders and ends in tight leggings, mostly made of shiny fabrics. The silhouette of the tube is in some pieces repeated with fabric filled with padding and used as tie-pads or worn as necklaces.

Don't believe your eyes: Martin Margiela loves the trompe l'oeil effect: the mini Mini-skirt is integrated into the tight tailored trouser as is a longer knee-length skirt; the tight long black dress at the front is discovered to be a cat suit at the back; shoes seem fused/veiled by garments.

Believe your eyes:
the trousers’ waists are at the natural body waistline.

Highlights of this collection are the fluorescent pieces in yellow, pink, green on natural fabrics.
