For a man so press shy and unwilling to give interviews, the exhibition almost felt like Margiela's way to bring relevance to a period of his career that he perhaps feels has been lost in time. It's a reminder that although the industry can sometimes make you feels like you're running a marathon in Tabi boots that are a half size too small with trend-driven change, ever-shortening lead times and difficult to please people on your heels – change is inevitable. That said, we shouldn't let ourselves forget what brought fashion to where it is now so it was nice to have a little reminder from Debo and the MoMu team; “We can’t go back to the ’90s.

The Maison Martin Margiela label, meanwhile – a blank, white cotton square – seemed to question the very notion of designer fashion as status driven. To the uninitiated, there was no way of knowing that a Maison Martin Margiela design was, in fact, ‘designer’.
