Martin Margiela: A Fashion Rebel with a Cause (Haul, Private Collection, LA Frock Stars)

[@annarehbinder7540]

Oh wow! This was so interesting ! I came to Paris 1989 and ended up going to University there, funnily enough Margiela bought the apartment which I almost traded to from My Stockholm appartment at the time. So I saw this interview from his home and recognized it . I was charmed by it.

[@bunny-kq7ps]

This was so interesting. Great video

[@lillithanne9704]

Thank you Doris for creating a living fashion encyclopedia. I respect your knowledge and appreciate the detail and care you take in creating these videos.

[@souda2276]

this vid was amazing. margiela was such a brilliant designer. the worst part tho is that it’s so hard to learn abt him and many of the collections. this vid taught a lot tho wow. i hope u make more videos on designers even if u don’t have a huge collection of their stuff cause this was so informative. ty!

[@suginami123]

Superb. I learned so much from an expert. Beautifully presented with no pretensions or time wasting. No gushing at all. Thank you.

The best one yet 🤩 the Lesage close up at the end was to die for!

[@baderinwa1]

Interesting. I started refashioning vintage clothing in the late sixties . I would purchase both men’s and women’s suits from vintage stores and redesign them. I even made my prom dress from a vintage dress and two men’s suits, in 1970. It was the talk of the event.

[@annabober9249]

There was a very famous model called Wallis Franken, who became Claude Montana’s muse. I know Montana designed for Lanvin in the early 90’s, is there a link? I absolutely ADORE your videos, so much knowledge, so many treasures, a real eye candy 😍 THANK YOU! 🙏🏻❤️

Truly bewildering! The way Martins designs seeped into modern contemporary fashion is just fabulous. Paying an homage to a revolutionary artist. Will you be maybe doing a video of your Vivienne Westwood pieces if you have any? I would so love that!

Amazing! Thank you for this episode! Margiela is truly one of the greatest! As a suggestion, would love a episode on one of the most influential designers from 90’s: Helmut Lang! Xx

[@thewaywewore7371]

Alex Luonto I don’t have any “interesting” pieces from Lang at this point.

Thanks for this

On every level, these clips are getting better and better. Fascinating, even to a design novice. Any chance of an episode on either Pacific or Australasian fashion?

[@thewaywewore7371]

sum12sumwhere Hi there. So sorry but I am sure you are aware of how difficult it is to find pieces larger than a contemporary size 10. It is literally the first thing to sell when I do. I am unaware of any designers from the past that specialized in this area. Any suggestions? Thanks for your interest! Doris

[@sum12sumwhere]

@@thewaywewore7371 I was really hoping to learn from you...and I do know how difficult plus pieces are to find, especially designer brands I have seen 80s style sets, but more from department store brands

[@thewaywewore7371]

sum12sumwhere That’s exactly my problem. Thank goodness the fashion world is finally paying attention to the needs of plus size women! I don’t believe there is much from the past. 95% of what I find is matronly and undesirable and not from one designer. Mostly from the 1940s and 50s. Sorry to disappoint you. Doris

OMG! What a great collection!

[@marvinraphaelmonfort8289]

I love anything lanvin and that jacket is wow! If it was snug on the mannequin, that probably belonged to HER! =]

[@JaesadaSrisuk]

That Lanvin jacket in the Show Off is utterly incredible. The structured sleeves, the quality of the silk and intricacy of the Lesage embroideries - so chic and timeless! Have you thought about doing a video on Jeanne Lanvin? Or maybe a double video on Jeanne Lanvin and Lanvin by Alber Elbaz? JL’s sumptuous fabrics and ladylike couture and AE’s dark glamour and romanticism would make for a fantastic video subject! Love your videos, Doris! Edit: Oh my god I just saw the “Wallis” tag. Could this really have been owned by Wallis Simpson? That would be a find of a lifetime! She certainly was a couture client throughout her life and was known to wear Lanvin images.app.goo.gl/dR2QkWUehHRZ3xp36 - so who knows?!

[@thatoneawkwardturtle9550]

I recently bought a 1920s gown with a beaded bottom and silk lining that's ripping, it also has weights should I store it flat or hanging?

[@thewaywewore7371]

thatoneawkwardturtle FLAT! If you hang it, the weight will cause stress on the shoulders and it could shred. Store either in acid free tissue paper or an unbleached 100% cotton sheet.

🤔 Sometimes I think there are designers that secretly say to themselves 😏 "I bet I can get these rich people to wear half-finished tailored clothes out in public as if it's the newest fashion, and charge them twice what a complete piece would cost!" 😂

[@thewaywewore7371]

She Who Knows All Hi there. I think you may be missing the point of Margiela. While he was designing for his eponymous collection- he took familiar ways of dressing and “twisted” it. Sometimes with humor and something’s making a different kind of statement. The process of creating a collection and the overhead attached to doing that is really high. Ot sure how they determine what to sell it for but I wanted to add that to the discussion. Thanks for watching. Happy holidays! Doris
