  • Martin Margiela is the most mysterious man in fashion, but in this video, we’re going to be taking a deeper look at his crazy journey towards becoming one of the most famous designers of all time. We’ll start with his beginnings in Belgium, the time he spent with Jean-Paul Gaultier, the launch of his own brand, some of his most popular fashion shows, the creation of the Tabi, and much more - including Margiela’s ties to Kanye West, and some exciting collabs we’ve seen recently. Hope you all enjoy this one - this is the history of Margiela.

    Martins anonymity has been one of the most inspiring things for me as a creative. Its made me appreciate his work so much more because the focus truely is on the work and not the name. I can safely say his decision to be a mystery figure has inspired my own identity as a creative.

    Martin Margiela wanted to make fashion from the very beginning. Raf Simons only after seeing his show. Now Martin doesn't want to do anything with fashion, Raf does. Interesting how both changed their attitude in the end.

    Amazing documentary as always. To be honest, you are the only channel that has priority over everything that I am doing when you drop.
    For me, Martin Margiela has to be somewhere in my top 3 as a designer. Every time I watch his old runway shows I ask myself ''how can someone be so good at doing the obvious''. And I don't mean that in a way that it is simply what he (and his team) were/are doing. For example, the '$11 Dollar Bill Wallet'' from SS 2008 is such an amazing idea, that when you look at it for the first time, you think: Why haven't I thought of that. Which is something that comes back in almost every collection. That is insane art to me, that blows my mind every time and while it looks easy afterward, actually thinking about it is the hard part. Fucking love Margiela.
    Ow btw, there is a Dutch/Flemish documentary about Margiela with interviews from Jenny and other (ex-)employees where they talked about the photo with the empty chair. It is taken in the backyard of their first Parisian office and while they were gathering for the photo they were still screaming to Martin's office above in the hope that Martin would come down for the photo, that is why the chair is there. Therefore it wasn't decided beforehand that Martin wouldn't be in it, which makes the photo even more amazing regarding his legacy of anonymity now.

    “Never give them too much” “keep them guessing” and “leave them wanting more” are 3 cliches that explain why this approach works so well. Plus I’ve never believed that fame is an essential part of success in this or any other industry. If you don’t want it you simply do what Martin is doing, keep a low profile!

    19:37, this takes us back to the game-changer factor we’ve seen since 1998 in Martin Margiela’s work: bringing the public behind the scenes and making everything extremely intimate without relying on the person, but on the final result by showing everyone the process behind it. That’s the same reason why in kanye west’s “listening parties” for DONDA Album the tracks were constantly changing: They were showing the process even on livestream on Apple Music and we could’ve seen the artist sleeping, working out, producing the album in a very intimacy-based way just like Martin Margiela did. We got to remember that D. Gvasalia who worked with Kanye as a director for the DONDA peoject was an internal of Mr. Margiela himself and their common interests led them to bring to the public collaborations who in some sort of way “kept” Margiela’s legacy when it comes to intimacy, showing the process, focusing on the final result. Everything at listening parties (they got extremely misunderstood) was meticulously planned, I could talk about this for hours but this is just a simple comment to add some more to this already fantastic video!!
