The MM6 Maison Margiela Fall/Winter 2021 collection is recently unveiled and it features a few collaborations and stark designs that boast many functions beyond style. The brand describes some of the pieces to have a 'reverse mode' as some of the items can be worn inverted, upside down, sideways, inside out, and more.
The silhouettes that join the seasonal range includes shirts, dresses, knitwear, and more. These are detailed with exposed seams, readjusted hems, some head openings, and the occasional portrait. The portraits are of names such as Jean Sibelius, Erik Satie, and Maurice Ravel. The series of menswear and womenswear silhouettes are adorned with statement accents as per usual. There are faux earrings made to look like imitation pearls, statement buttons, and much more.
