The Margiela and Converse CollabMaison Martin Margiela has fast emerged from the depths of the fashion world, gaining much popularity in recent years through avid brand loyalists such as Kanye West and A$AP Rocky bringing this once underrated luxury label to the forefront of the fashion scene (not to mention the unholy appropriation of Comme Des Garcons). Maison Martin Margiela used to stand alone, both aesthetically and ethos-wise, but recent collaborations with fashion houses Missoni, H&M, and most recently, G-SHOCK. have expanded the overall reach of the brand. Iconic shoe brand, Converse, has formed a partnership to release an exclusive line on the 11th of September. The preview shows a Chuck Taylor Hi-Top being engulfed in thick, white paint — the colour Maison Martin Margiela has mastered. Watch the preview below, and watch this space for more in the coming weeks!
