We, at Mimi Berlin, think that the Duvet Coat from Martin Margiela for Fall/Winter 1999 is an iconic fashion design. We also think that many more designs by Mr Margiela himself are iconic.
Bed-Week at Mimi Berlin
Bed-Week at Mimi Berlin
Simply because of the fact that it’s the first week of 2017 we, at Mimi Berlin, decided to spend this week in bed. We understand that not everyone is this privileged; so, if you really need to be outside here are some tips to cosy up on the cold winter streets >>>>>>>>>>

Fashion Faces by Galliano at Maison Margiela
Fashion Faces by Galliano at Maison Margiela
The Couture (for Spring 2015) show of Maison Margiela was designed by John Galliano. It truly was a wonderful show! See that HERE for yourself.
The garments were so wonderfully detailed, there was too much to see to describe. So we will stick with the faces he created (because we posted last week on fashion faces) (images via style.com)
Must-see of the Month, according to Rüpert.
I came across this wonderful and highly fascinating short interview with style director Adrian Clarke. He discusses the Maison Martin Margiela S/S 93 collection.
SHOWstudio asked a range of editors tot tell them about their top punk moment on the catwalk, in order to celebrate and unpick punk’s lasting influence on fashion.
I don’t want to spoil your fun, so I won’t tell you anything. Go ahead and listen, it just a wonderful story.
Kisses all around, Rüpert.
