HISTORY
Unveiled in Spring/Summer 1997, this sweater demonstrates Maison Martin Margiela’s practice of deconstruction, where seams and edges were intentionally left visible or unfinished. The collection emphasized rawness and imperfection as design choices, rethinking garment construction by exposing hidden details. Frayed hems and exposed stitching became both structural and aesthetic, exemplifying Margiela’s anti-fashion ethos.
