Maison Martin Margiela is a French clothing line known for avant-garde designs that was founded by Belgian designer Martin Margiela in 1988. Prior to starting his own line, Margiela worked at Jean Paul Gaultier and Hermès.
“The democracy of our fashion has always been at the centre of our creativity, and the collaboration with H&M allows us to push this instinct further,” Maison Martin Margiela said in a news release. “We will bring together the contrasting universes of the two houses in ways that will surprise all.”
Two promotional videos, also released Tuesday, show the sketching of a darted wool sweater dress for women and a long car coat for men.
