The coolest piece we've had pass through in quite a while. During Margiela's tenure at his eponymous house, he was obsessed with revealing the creative process with consumers. Deconstruction isn't quite the right term, instead opting for a more mid-construction aesthetic, an insight into the design process for those less familiar with the world whilst also acting as a middle finger towards the inherent stuck-up nature of the art form. This blazer is from the tail end of Margiela's career. A cozy, almost fleece-like wool pinstripe forms the body, with the stripes constructed in a relatively haphazard manner. Throughout the blazer are tiny details that hint towards the aforementioned design process. The roughly stitched button holes, placeholder metal buttons, fraying hand stitches meant just to keep two pieces of fabric together whilst the final sewing ensues, hand whip-stitching in lieu of machine sewing, patch pockets, and much more. The rest will be up to you to discover. If Margiela's disdain for perfectionism isn't apparent in the garment alone just have a look at that picture of it from the runway. It's literally just lying on the ground. Clothes aren't just previous products to admire, they're meant to be worn.
