Margiela the Hermes Years
On my want list: Margiela the Hermès Years. This book accompanies the exhibition of the same name at Antwerp’s MoMu (opens today!), which we’ll no doubt be reading lots about in the coming weeks.
In case you didn’t know (or had forgotten), Martin Margiela designed the fabulous Hermès Double Tour strap bracelet for the Cape Cod watch, which is another item on my (eternal) want list. We tend to think of Margiela as radical and experimental but in fact he straddled the weird and wearable very well.
Margiela, the Hermes Years is on until 27th August at MoMu, Nationalestraat 28, 2000 Antwerp, Belgium. Info at MoMu.be

I love how distinctive it is and I’m surprised it hasn’t been copied more!
