The Maison Martin Margiela exhibition was held at Somerset House in London. I unfortunately only had about 10 minutes to walk around the exhibition...well it was more like a fast walk/slow jog! What I did see however really intrigued me, and has to be one of the best fashion exhibitions I have ever been to. The pieces that stick with me the most were the trench coats and the garments that were made from accessories. One of the trench coats was actually made using two trench coats, and although there were extra arms in places it seemed to work! The other garments I mentioned were made entirely from gloves, or there was another one made entire from leather straps. I think its a really innovative and creative idea...making a garment out of something that isn't fabric.
It really made me think... what do I use everyday that I could collect and use for a future garment?
