ABOUT OUR COLLECTIONS

Dear visitors, 

After the success of "A History of Fashion", our second collections tour will open to the public in June 2023.

This next collections tour will be an opportunity for you to discover a new history of fashion, from the 18th century to the present day, through our exceptional collections presented in a new theme dedicated to the body in motion.

The link between fashion and sport will be the subject of the second display of this new collections tour, echoing the Olympic Games that will be held in Paris in 2024.

At Martin Margiela's Fall-Winter 2002 show on March 12, 2002, two men in white coats carry transparent Plexiglas boxes in their arms, similar to those seen in museums.

They protect vintage handbags entirely covered with washed white cotton canvas that hides all the details. This "post-logo leather goods", as the French newspaper Le Monde will describe it, is covered with the shape like the armchairs and sofas of the Martin Margiela House. Even the inside is lined with white cotton. It's technically difficult to obtain because the cover of each model is unique, custom-made. These protections, held by bolducs and hand-sewn snap fasteners, are completely removable and machine washable.
