HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARTIN

Born in Belgium(1959), Martin Margiela studied at the Antwerpen's Fine Arts School(1980) and was a freelance designer for 5 years after graduation.

He worked for Jean Paul Gaultier for two years (1985-87) and decided to strike out on his own, showing his first collection under his own label in 1988.

His creations are known for their mixture of innovation and wearability

Here is a preview from his S/S 09 collection
