>> For Pre-Fall 2011, Maison Martin Margiela showed menswear-inspired cuts dabbed with a touch of decadence. In addition to classic streamlined suits and straight-leg trousers, there were blazers made out of two different fabrics, like rabbit fur and flannel, creating a directional textural look. Neutral hues like camel, gray, and black ruled the story board, but Margiela also highlighted shades of burgundy, red, and even hot pink.
