Martin Margiela – Spring 2013 Complete Collection

 Martin Margiela 2013: Get inspiration for right now with highlights from the Paris Spring 2013 Runways

Maybe it takes a few hit & miss collections to deliver the kind of on the dot, pure perfection the design team at Maison Martin Margiela presented in Paris as it was one winner of an outing.

Streamlined and solid, a sobering palette of neutrals made way for plays on proportions and shapes that kept up with the modern winds of fashion while allowing for a subtle sexuality.

An a-line trapeze shape lent many of the looks a billowing elegance, while body-con tube dresses, sculpted bustier tops and voluminous maxi lengths added a glamorous sense of drama.

Standouts included a heather gray maxi-dress fabricated to resemble a sweatshirt in a 60′s era couture shape and an assortment of easy-on-the-eye dresses that evoked a liberating sense of ease on the wear.

That alone made this a memorable delivery as many of the looks proposed an alternative to cookie-cutter red carpet dressing that complete with opera gloves, made an assertive take on elegant minimalism.
