Those with an appreciation for [timeless modern looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fallwinter-2025) that have a vintage edge are sure to like the new [Maison Margiela](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mm6-maison-margiela-prefall) collection.

With a focus on jackets, the 2017 Fall/Winter apparel features oversized cuts and statement patterns and color palettes. Although there are plenty of neutrals used, the new Maison Margiela collection has its share of bold hues like traffic light red and lime green. Hues of mint, mustard yellow and brown show a 70s inspiration, especially in combination with flared leg pants, retro sweaters and blazers.

Also included in the new Maison Margiela collection are shearling and trench coats, patchwork vests, leather pants and [distressed denim jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fall-2025-denim-collection) -- making for a versatile collection that can easily be mixed and matched for vastly different looks.
