Margiela In Name Only
Rumors of Martin Margiela stepping down from his namesake brand has been floating around for months. It is no longer a rumor but a truth. Maison Martin Margiela is no longer directly involved in the designing of his brand - this is confirmed by Renzo Rosso; founder of Diesel who in 2002 bought a majority share in Maison Martin Margiela. 

This is beyond sad. Martin Margiela is a visionary at the forefront of his craft. I never fail to be amazed and thrilled by his pieces. I don't know if the Maison Martin Margiela brand is going to mean as much now that Margiela himself has stepped down. It wouldn't be the same and only time will tell if the new team can fill the huge gapping void that his departure would cause. 

It's time to start hunting for pieces designed by Margiela himself - they are going to increase in value faster than you can say 'In Name Only'.
