Unfortunately, the rumors are true. Martin Margiela; founder of the iconic
Maison Martin Margiela clothing company, is stepping down from his post. It was rumored for some time now that he was going to exit the company that he founded. The company was bought out by the Italian brand,
Diesel, in 2002. Margiela was one of the historic icons in fashion in our generation, he introduced us to deconstructed fashion, and completely white boutiques. Margiela is somewhat of a mystery though, he has somehow managed to have never been photographed; even with his immense popularity. Just because he is leaving, does not mean that the company will change its views. It will stay the same, but instead being taken over by one person; it will be run by a large group of people. Hopefully, MMM will still have the same effect on fashion as it always has; I bid you adieu Mr. Margiela, and good luck.
