The Paris fashion week was closed by John Galliano, with the Artisanalspring summer 2024 collection by Maison Martin Margiela.
Unique and unmistakable details of a creative genius, a combination of see-through and unsee-through, filters and trompe l’oeil fabrics then watercolored with a voilette of printed tulle.
The models seemed to parade shakily in their step, like dolls on a suspended string, an engaging emotional work, just as the screening of Yorgos Lanthimos‘s film had ended just a few minutes earlier. A dark and expressionist parade, full of references to the Belle Epoque and to the photographer Brassaï, to the belly of the French capital and to the Franco-Dutch painter Kees Van Dongen, whose tailored garments investigate the body and its forms.
A pictorial collection that mixes old and new techniques, with a nocturnal palette. Gwendoline Christie closed the show. Also on the catwalk Lucky Love.
