The fashion show by Maison Margiela unfolded under the Alexandre III Bridge in Paris, by the first full moon of the year, showcasing the imagination of Creative Director John Galliano.

The show captured the moment of walking offline in the most vulnerable spaces of Paris, unfolding the surroundings easily overlooked, much like the voyeuristic character photographs by Brassaï.

People wandering under the moonlight along the Seine, the engravings on their clothes, and the scenes unfolding beyond the dimly lit windows of houses come into view. The beginning, depicted like a movie with the eerie atmosphere of Paris under a drizzle, led to a multidisciplinary stage where shooting, editing, and live online streaming were conducted simultaneously.

Corsets and cinchers reshape the body and prosthetics support the silhouettes, where emotions take a tangible form. Lines, shapes, textures, and values of painting reflect in haute couture techniques, forming a framework for studying the ritual of dressing. Drapes are created using aquarelling techniques on dreamy prints of tulle bourette, blurring under moonlight, faded under the sun, singed by cigarettes, or illuminating the undulating water in the dark night.

Emotional cutting in outfits made for walking in the rain without soaking trousers, covering faces with raised collars, or wearing a cape over the head, embeds unconscious gestures of self-expression. Meanwhile, the milletrage technique presents jackets, coats, pants as light as feathers, appearing as substantial basic items.
