Maison Martin Margiela Archive Book Series Second Volume Just Released

printings.jp releases the second volume of its MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA Archive Book series printings.jp, the publisher and curator specializing in fashion- and art-related printed matter, announces the release of its latest MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA archive book, titled “non four stitch”.

This volume focuses on a series of garments that forgo the iconic four-stitch label synonymous with MAISON MARTIN MARGIELA, instead featuring process labels describing the garment’s production process stitched directly onto the clothing itself. Covering the period from 1994 to 1999, the book is organized into seven thematic chapters, including the landmark “DOLL” collection from Fall/Winter 1994 and “TOILE” from Fall/Winter 1997. Spanning 472 pages, the publication is a comprehensive archive centered on the rare garments held in the collection of LAILA, the parent organization of printings.jp, systematically documenting these significant works.

Advance pre-orders will begin at 12:00 PM on Thursday, July 30th, through the printings.jp online store. The book will also be available in stores starting Thursday, September 17th.
