AnOther magazine recently published a piece online taking a look at the Maison Martin Margiela atelier as they prepared for the women's couture show in Paris. The article by Kin Woo is accompanied by a series of beautiful photo collages by HART+LËSHKINA which offer a rare look inside the space hidden away in Paris' 11th arrondissement.

Words

With the first arrivals of the Fall-Winter '14 season, Totokaelo have relaunched their website to create a more cohesive home for their mens, womens and art-object offerings. It was already one of my favourite online destinations, but the Seattle-based retailer has done a fine job with easy to use navigation, clean art direction and high quality imagery.

With fall stock arriving at shops around the world, there are a lot of options out there for the season's first purchases. Mr. Porter have been doing a great job since opening only a few seasons ago, and they have plenty on offer already. While the season's buys can be interpreted in a number of ways, these pieces worked well together, featuring a variety of greys, a little of wool and a casual look overall.

—01. 100% Cotton.
—02. Made in Italy.

Words

There's something appealing about occasionally treating yourself to a more luxury version of a classic wardrobe staple. This navy blue hooded sweat from Margiela fits the criteria: easy to wear in a classic colour, a thoughtful and interesting design, and a fair old price tag to match.

Maison Martin Margiela Elbow Patch Sweater

—01. Made in Italy.

Words

Not unlike the grey John Smedley sweater we featured last week, this dark green wool sweater by Margiela is a great layering piece. The shade of green is particularly nice and the elbow patches are always a nice detail.

Margiela Knit Hats

—01. Grey cable.
—02. Black rib.

Words

Again Margiela offers a fantastic range of knitwear, including some especially expensive and nice headwear. Their knit caps are definitely a few dollars more than your average, but they are rather nice, and I find they hold their shape really nicely over a few years of wear.
