Fancy A Sleep-Over With Maison Martin Margiela in Paris? [Tangent Magazine]


Then you are in luck – all you have to do is count down the days until April 2011.

Our favourite elusive fashion house, Maison Martin Margiela, is set to re-create a hotel on (arguably) the most fashionable strip of the most fashionable city in the world.

The entire ground floor together with 7 suites and 10 guest rooms of the hotel Maison Champs-Elysées will be reconceived, renewed and re-created to embellish all things Maison Martin Margiela.

Can you even imagine? Probably not, because the Maison is just fabulous at keeping secrets and ensuring we are always surprised.

But, the fashion house has given us a little taste of what this project might bring:

‘Maison Martin Margiela creates a theatrical environment where reality and trompe-l’œil are mixing together. The result is several sets with intertwined references giving an atypical ambiance harmoniously opposing past and present’, says Maison Martin Margiela.

Located in the historical building of the Maison des Centraliens and set amongst the Grand Palais and the Champs Elysées in the very heart of Paris, this soon-to-be five star hotel is destined to be heavenly.

Unfortunately though, we will all have to hold our breath until the Maison Champs-Elysées is unveiled next April.
