Slick Stamped Heel Designs

Maison Margiela Launches the MM6, Which Has a Hidden Design Element

Maison Margiela launches a subtly designed collection that features a stamped heel for the Fall/Winter 2019 season.

The offerings are quite literally made to "leave behind a print," pushing forward a concept that is not only timeless in aesthetic but also impactful in use. The name of the capsule is '6 Stamp' — a title that directly references the aforementioned mark. In the footwear, the numeric symbol is realized in a stamped heel. The shoes come in two colorways — one is off-white, the other one is black. The monochromatic approach signals to intended minimalism. In addition to this, Maison Margiela also launches a series of accessories that follow similar design sensibilities. This includes items like earrings, rings, and a neckless, all boasting the 6 stamp.
