Although Margiela was only temporarily involved with the group, many still considder him to be the "7th" member of the collective. After graduation in 1980 he worked as a freelance designer for five years. Between 1985 and 1987 he worked for Jean Paul Gaultier, before showing his first collection under his own label in 1988. In 1997 he became, despite his non-traditional design, the chief designer of Hermés women's line. During the 1980s, the Japanese avantgardists, with Rei Kawakubo (Comme des Garcons), had turned the fashion scene upside-down with their eccentric and ground-breaking designs. Martin Margiela and the Antwerp Six would carry on the work, revolting against the luxurious fashion world with garments of oversized proportions such as long arms, and with linings, seams and hems on the outside. The concept of deconstruction, also embraced by the aforementioned Rei Kawakubo, is important for the understanding of Martin Margiela's fashion statement. Mr Margiela famously redesigns by hand objects such as old wigs, canvases and silk scarves into couture garments. Martin Margiela has been called the J. D. Salinger of the fashion world, and rightly so -- he refuses to be photographed and will only be interviewed by fax. He won't even put his name on his clothes, branding them instead with a blank label.

Manish Arora Spring-Summer 2008 Runway Show (Part 1 of 2) anastasiausa 2008-06-19 | Shop the Collections at: http://www.anastasiausa.net Add Us! http://www.myspace.com/anastasia_usa Also Visit the Fashion Talk Blog @ http://www.thefashiontalk.com Manish Arora originally trained in commerce in Mumbai, but found neither the subject nor the city triggered his imagination. Looking for something more personal and creative, and with no prior experience of design, he turned to film for inspiration for his first collection of clothing. This influence continues to impact on his, not only in the rich saturation of color and surface decoration, but also in the sense of drama and narrative he employs. Each collection is a deeply personal story, drawn from his environment and that of his immediate circle. For Arora, his collections are 100% about India - both a love for it and a sense of humor about it. What he succeeds in doing is translating that passion in such a way that his garments are neither pastiche nor costume, arguably as a result of his awareness of international trend.
