Maison Margiela

French label Maison Margiela deftly designs both ready-to-wear and haute couture. Shop for its futuristic footwear and captivating scents in our collection at Selfridges.

The product of Martin Margiela's fascination for the avant-gardists of post-war Japan, this eclectic Belgian brand emerged back in 1988. Margiela's subversive attitude towards the fashion industry led to a creative output defined by unconventional garments, unorthodox textures and exaggerated proportions. The Maison Margiela label takes this rebellious spirit and runs with it, preferring inventive runway shows in off-beat locations such as abandoned Paris Métro stations.

By browsing this selection of footwear, fragrances and homeware, you'll witness design conventions challenged. Maison Margiela shoes have a dual purpose: they reference heritage classics while evoking images of deconstructivist and contemporary looks. Discover ankle boots with signature detailing influenced by 15th-century Japanese socks or snakers crafted from innovatively chosen materials, such as transparent PVC.

These many idiosyncrasies are also present in our selection of Maison Margiela scents and candles. Look out for gender-neutral perfumes and fragrances named after everyday experiences, developed to transport you to evocative destinations. Explore woody, floral or fruity notes and be comforted by the joyful memories they conjure up.
