The Maison Margiela Ready-to-Wear Fall 2018 collection debuts on the runway with a chilling line up of functional climate clothing. Drawing inspiration from disastrous events within ecological and political spheres, the high fashion label envisions an apocalyptic scenario, where durable fabrics, oversize ensembles that engulf the human physique and fashion-forward caps are essential for survival.
The Ready-to-Wear collection of dependable climate clothing features futuristic metallic textures, see-through water-repellent fabrics and stylish techno footwear. Throughout the enveloping sci-fi collection, hits of cobalt blue within small outfit details, as well as the runway models`s plump lips, capture the attention of the audience and divert it from the dystopian scenario that is set forth by Maison Margiela`s targeted climate clothing collection for 2018.
