Maison Margiela has opened a new boutique at Oakridge Park in Vancouver, marking the House's second location in Canada and its largest store in the Americas. The retail space spans over 360 square feet.
Maison Margiela's boutique at Oakridge Park introduces the Spring 2026 runway collection alongside new leather accessories, including The Box Bag, Heel-less footwear, and Tabi Claw. Other signature house pieces like the iconic Tabi and 5AC Bag also capture attention.
The architectural language of the space reflects Maison Margiela's core philosophy of deconstruction and refinement, creating a composition where texture, light, and form converge to find beauty in the unconventional. The interior palette employs warm beige and off-white tones. This, in turn, continues a retail concept that has been developed across the brand's global locations.
