Brand Spotlight: MM6 Maison Margiela

Posted by Sarah Evans on

Though MM6 may not be familiar to everyday fashion fans, its parent label Maison Martin Margiela will most certainly resonate. The namesake brand of designer Martin Margiela was established in 1988 and continues the legacy of the now recluse Belgian artist. 

The Strapless Dress in Black features black sleeves that can be worn for an off the shoulder look or left to hang to the sides for a blowy sleeveless look.

MM6, established in 1997, acts as a diffusion line for the Maison. Though the lower price point targets a younger audience, the designs featured don’t strictly cater to a young crowd. Wardrobe staples like high top sneakers and tailored shirt dresses can find homes among the closets of a variety of ages. The subtle brand identity features an embroidered “6” and the iconic stitching on the reverse tag placement (four stitches for mainline, two horizontal lines for MM6).

The Logo 6 Shirt Dress in Midnight features a high low hem, and an oversized fit. The longer back hem, and roomy fit, provide total comfort while the deep navy and classic tailoring bring refinement to the look.

Opposite the typical womenswear prescription, the most recent pieces in store utilize characteristics like billowy silhouettes and tailoring inspired by menswear. Masculine cuts countered by light feminine fabric and draping prove that comfort takes the reins. Although there is an undeniable elegance that's equally prevalent throughout the collection, there is a practicality that comes with each piece, whether in the form of thick cylindrical heels, platform shoes, or high low dress hems.

The Boatneck Top in Off-White is a gorgeous, pleated blouse with a matching Side Drape Midi Skirt. 100% unlined Polyester enhances the flowing qualities of this set. Wear it as separates to dress it down, or as a set for a Goddess-like evening fit.

No sacrifices are made when choosing to wear MM6. Peak wearability takes these pieces from the workplace and beyond. Their contemporary take on classic styles crush everyday trends and will speak to those seeking comfort, wearability, and uncomprimising style.
