Maison Martin Margiela's FW 2014 collection features high-quality materials paired with a subdued color palette.
The lookbook was shot in the backstreets of Paris, effectively contrasting the sleek, luxurious goods from the French fashion house with the grungy, urban storage units found in nearly every city. Mathieu Vilasco photographed Elite paris' Brieu Morel in a series of relaxed, sporty silhouettes chosen by stylist Pauline Croce. In some shots, Morel looks like a forlorn youth playing hooky from class; however, despite his obvious rebellion, each outfit retains a measure of sophistication and elegance that's fit for an adult. The element of grunge is not lost from the collection, playing out in a refined manner.
The Maison Martin Margiela FW 2014 collection is perfect for grown-ups who haven't given up their sassy streak.
